"Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that" - George Carlin
I appreciate it but I've come to live with it since I have no choice. I take it one day at a time. Have a supportive wife and kids. I have a child who became an orthopedic surgeon and another child became a Doctor of physical therapy due to my CRPS. Every day above ground is a good day! All the best

No, unfortunately I'm 15yrs into medication cocktails and have yet to find anything. Gabapentin, Clonidine, & Duloxetine currently with little relief. I even tried LDN as it was well documented in Europe for success but did not work for me. Ketamine drip almost killed me. Research is badly needed.

I thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, I'm unable to have a spinal implant as I developed CRPS at the incision point for the two week testing. I'm hypersensitive & my CRPS develops with any incision. I have had to have Mohs surgery for skin cancer and now I have CRPS on both sides of my face 😔.

It would be wonderful because, as a CRPS sufferer, I'm often treated like a guinea pig while doctors experiment with various cocktails of meds to try to alleviate the intolerable pain that I experience 24/7/365. Usually, it's just guesswork for them & side effects without relief for me. 😔
