                        I have never heard of Chronic Regional Pain syndrome.  Only "Chronic Pain"... I have had multiple surgeries in the same spot.  I have severe tissue and nerve damage because of it.  I have large area of scar tissue... I have chronic pain in this region.  I am on Daily Morphine for this pain as it allows me to function as normal as possible...  But I still have not heard it coined as the syndrome such as your doctor called it...   Interesting...
