Description

<p>In the analog corners of Utah, Libby Slem navigates the digital age with a Luddite's charm and a warrior's grit, facing Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). This isn't your everyday pain; it's a journey through a rare nerve disease that transforms every facet of life, from motherhood's joys and trials to the heart's metallic beats, courtesy of an atrial septal defect. Libby's candid conversation unfolds the layers of CRPS, beyond the pain to the diagnosis stages, and the sheer impact on her personal and parenting life. With humor and gravity, she delves into the challenges of seeking support in a world barely scratching the surface of understanding chronic pain.</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.cbc.ca/listen/cbc-podcasts/434-sickboy/episode/16032029-chronic-pain-reset-redefining-life-beyond-the-threshold" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Our recent chronic pain episode</a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.caringmedical.com/prolotherapy-news/complex-regional-pain-syndrome-crps/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">For more info on CRPS</a></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCstejCbe9-zvG7nXgf-jwbg" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Catch the full video version of this episode on YouTube</a></p><p><br></p><p>Follow Sickboy on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sickboypodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@sickboypodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a> and <a href="https://discord.gg/expeUDN" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Discord</a>!</p>
