I have crps for the past 3 years. I’m on multiple pain meds and 3600mg of gabapentin. The best treatment so far has been ketamine infusions! I live in NY so it is very expensive but was well worth it. I went through treatments, pt, meds, creams, ganglion block etc but the only thing that helped to bring my pain down from a 10 to a 8 which to me was amazing… before Ketamine I could barely breathe or move without feeling like my skin was being hit with acid and after the 2nd treatment I could breathe again. Don’t get it twisted I still have pain usually consistently a 8 but I also have other health issues so it makes it complicated but the ketamine infusions definitely helped the crps so if you could afford it I highly recommend it because it does help even though I still am on pain medicine, it’s better even when you know that there’s help out there. Praying for anyone dealing with crps! May you get the help you need from this awful pain

I have CRPS. I’m sorry to hear you do, too. I went to an anesthesiologist who specializes in pain management. I could not get any type of medication to work on my body. My CRPS is in my legs. In March I had a permanent spinal cord stimulator implanted in my spine. I am using the Boston Scientific one. It has taken some time to adjust to it however, I do not regret putting this in at all! I strongly recommend it.
