Seeking support from others with CRPS
Chronic Pain | Last Active: Dec 11, 2025 | Replies (5)Comment receiving replies
I have diagnosed 2 years ago with CRPS. It happened 10 years ago when I had a spinal C6-C7 epidural injection. The needle went too far that touched the nerve. Since then the 5th finger pain never end. Two years ago after I had neck C5-C7 infusion that aggravated the nerve . The pain on 5th finger getting worse. I saw a hand specialist he said it is CRPS for sure. I had stellate Ganglion shot 4 time. None of them worked. I have been on Narcotic on the clock. The worst part was I can NOT sleep. Once I fell sleep the pain wakes me up. Now I understand why it called " The burning night" I tried PT, Acupuncture and laser treatment. The next I am going for a Ketamine infusion. I will post about the out come to share with someone who has similar condition.

@songfamily2025 I know this sounds crazy but try Vitamin B12 and Iron, and eggs. I had severe nerve pain this last year. The pain management doctor was no longer helpful. I already do B12 injections. I have bisglycinate Iron (Bronson brand $10 on Amazon, gentle and non constipating); I was feeling super fatigued so I got on a regimen of taking the B12 & iron regularly, and eating a couple eggs in the morning. It MIRACULOUSLY fixed long-standing neuropathies. I was amazed that the pain management doctorS I see (capital S on purpose) over the years never looked at this for me. (of course not, they can't make money!) I researched why it was working - when we age, some of us don't digest the nutrition we eat. (I eat VERY WELL) and a shortage of iron/B12 to your nerves (nerve sheaths) to "act out." I will bet you will at least see some improvement! I hate having to stop and make eggs in the morning but the old senior dog and I agree we are MUCH IMPROVED!!!! let me know if it helps... I saw a difference in a couple days. It was so crazy!
