    Hi @tottenham - & welcome to the community. I see on your other thread that you have CRPS & are going to see a specialist soon. They will be in the best position to advise you if they can help. Hopefully you don't have too long to wait. Please let us know how you get on.

    Thinking of you @tottenham. Fewer days now, 3 days left to wait. 

    It sounds really difficult that your CRPS is spreading  :( Would anything, in particular, help you at the moment whilst you wait?

    Please don't hesitate to let us know if we can do anything to help, even if that is just listening  <3

    I'm so sorry to hear that @tottenham, I hope they are able to get you in. Can you go back to your GP for the pain in the short term?
