Can I have surgery even though I'm in remission from CRPS?

March 28, 2018
Asked By:AlyssaCat06 in Toledo, OH

I was in a car accident two years ago which caused me to develop CRPS in my right ankle. Since the accident I have also developed Fibromyalgia. I am wondering if these conditions are contraindications for cosmetic surgery. I want a tummy tuck, breast lift(possibly with implants), BBL, and thigh lift. As stated, I'm in remission from CRPS and have been for over a year now. I was told that I had a very mild case as well. Are there any extra risks that I should know about?
