That is not true that if that doesnt have immediate effect then it isnt CRPS!

I don't want to take anything away from these women or this topic, just saying it isn't just women....men have RSD/CRPS too!

This was a great video to see. I have a CPD and I know all to well what being dismissed by physicians feels like. I was never depressed and I fought long and hard to be taken seriously. Not all women can survive this type of abuse.....I was degraded, emotionally and verbally abused and I have lost friends who believe doctors are always right....they are human and they need to embrace CPD's.

Same accounts even from children. Most recent story this month about a 14 year old who was misdiagnosed. He turned into an addict because they tried treating him with opiates, then accused of being a med-seeker and druggie. His whole body was affected though almost 18 physicians told him it was just in his head. Thank you for bringing this to light. The child's name is Joseph Martinez & he is finally receiving care at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital from Dr. Elliot Krane. Kudos to you all!

Thank you for this, i also have C R P S, have had it for over 2 years now. The Dr's need to look outside the square, and stop treating us as morons! In my case it has been the specialists that have treated me badly. Whatever happend to Dr's wanting to help people ? The good old dollar!!!!
