Neuropathic pain / CRPS
Any advice would be much appreciated please. I was told I have CRPS and I'm being treated for CRPS. I was just about to purchase travel insurance and I thought I would have another read through my diagnosis letter. It wasn't clear to me so I called to double check with the pain consultant. He told me to put down neuropathic pain, this has increased my quote by £90. Can I dispute this with him? How do I approach the subject of wanting my CRPS diagnosis being official. I'm waiting for an autism assessment and one of my issues is replying to people during a conversation, I need prompting, extra time to process and think of my reply and sometimes I need help to get my side of the conversation going. Next week I will have no one available to help me during my phone call with him. I keep trying to rehearse how the conversation could go but I could do with some tips on how to prepare myself for what could be said and how I answer.
