I have had CRPS for 23 years. I have it on the right side of my body. I take Cymbalta, Gabapentin, 600 mg 4 times a day. I now have a cream that can be used every eight hours. It’s a combination of ketamine+baclofen+cyclobenzaprine+gapapentin+lidocaine+lipoderm. You have to get it at a compound pharmacy. My doctor recommended it and it is wonderful! It relieves the horrible burning and hypersensitivity. The gabapentin helps with the burning also! You have to talk to a pain doctor about these meds. My osteoporosis doctor is the one who recommended the cream. It has helped me a lot with the burning. What kind of pain does your daughter have? The doctor told me that my legs would have atrophy, but that has not happened. Your daughter needs to stay as active as possible so her limbs won’t do that. I had to go on disability at age 46 and that was horrible but I had no choice. I also have a very cold foot that requires constant heat 24\7. It’s hard to deal with but it’s not taking me down. I am also on a opioid for spondylosis in my neck, but it doesn’t help with the CRPS.
