It is time to bring Awareness to CRPS/ RSD - otherwise known as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome / Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy ! This disease of the Central, Sympathetic & Para-Sympathetic Nervous Systems is absolutely devastating , debilitating and excruciatingly painful ! How do I know this ?  I have this disease and live in severe pain 24/7 x 365 and the pain NEVER goes away , even while taking prescription medication to MANAGE the pain so that it is not as severe . November is CRPS/ RSD Awareness Month and November 2nd is 'Colour The World Orange' Day !
