__________ Symptoms Associated With CRPS ___________ Here is a list of other symptoms associated with CRPS. These are from my own experience and a few I hear from others. You may experience some or all of these. Some of these you will have right away and others will gradually start over time. We all have different ways we deal with each and every one of these symptoms. Our doctors don`t tell us that as our CRPS progresses we will be facing all sorts of other symptoms along the the way and what to do about them all. I have had CRPS for 6 years now. I instantly lost my 38 year Critical Care RN career with my injury. I just started to talk about my injury and life this year. Now that I have had the 6 years of experience as a sufferer myself I feel I can help others, or at least I think I can and want to try. It is fantastic to have these support and learning groups for CRPS sufferers. We can support each other, learn about our disease, discuss our issues, give suggestions and advice and try to help each other. _______Camilla 11/16/14 1.
