RSD Advisory- Where Chronic Pain & Mental Illness Collide

A Comprehensive Compilation of RSD(S)CRPS Related Resource Links


The following is a list of resources I’ve compiled through research. My passion is to promote awareness and understanding in regards to RSD(S)/CRPS, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome, also known as, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome and other illnesses and information directly or indirectly associated to it. Some links may be repetitive. There is still no cure to date.

  1. Your list is a great resource. I have discovered a lack of information for caregivers of RSD/CRPS on the web, so I have started a blog.

  2. Greetings Liz

    Thank you! I have spent months researching these sites to compile this list. It is my hope that others find the information they need here. It is my continued passion to promote awareness for RSD/CRPS sufferers. ~smiles

  3. Bush and the Republicans were not protecting us on 9-11, and we aren’t a lot safer now. We may be more afraid due to george bush, but are we safer? Being fearful does not necessarily make one safer. Fear can cause people to hide and cower. What do you think? Why has bush turned our country from a country of hope and prosperity to a country of belligerence and fear.
    If ever there was ever a time in our nation’s history that called for a change, this is it!
    We have lost friends and influenced no one. No wonder most of the world thinks we suck. Thanks to what george bush has done to our country during the past three years, we do!
