Hi @jacquelinedei, thanks for the tip about the book - I hadn't heard of it before. I'm sorry to hear how much pain CRPS is causing you. I have it, too. Can you get nerve blocks, acupuncture, biofeedback, or a pain psychologist, covered? Those are things I could recommend. Above, we were discussing neurostimulator implants, too. I haven't tried that myself. I find some relief wearing a $20 Isotoner compression glove (CRPS is in my hand & arm), and when my arm gets too cold I use an inexpensive electric throw - it was a lifesaver this winter! I hope between all of us, somebody has an idea that will help you.
