hello. im scared to ask anything was created by Teresa
I find since I got assaulted in 2005 in work, been diagnosed with CRPS/RSD in2006. Ive gone from a fit and very active young girl to a miserable, exhausted, worthless and very incomperdant, lets say person. I am looking for someone to help me with my DLA form who as CRPS/RSD, so they could relate to what Im going through. Is there any chance. Im hoping someone with CRPS in the right arm could contact me. and talk me through another negative stage in my life. T xx

Hya, if you look at the guidelines on here they are very good, if you need face to face help, citizens advice, or wlefare advice in your area, you may have to make an appointment.
As far as advice re your condition and pain, ther are many sites and forums such as painsupport.co.uk

All the best Lil

you get DLA for the help you need not the illness what can't you mange when your right arm is in pain ? also how are the psychological affects of the pain and assault affecting you ?

Hi Teresa,
I too have rsd/crps I have it in both legs after a RTA eleven years ago.
I dip in and out of a website called fightingrsd.co.uk they have other peoples experience of filling in dla forms for this condition specifically and lots of advice and support in general.
I hope this helps.
