I'm afraid fixing the tooth might trigger something and then have pain in more than just her hand and arm. It is something that needs to be done. Can't just ignore a rotting tooth.
Anyone with suggestions? We are still "new" to this disease, condition, whatever it is.

I just wanted to share with you all something I learned from both my PM and dentist recently. Many of the medications we all take cause dry mouth apparently this is the main reason we end up having horrible tooth problems suddenly. My PM cautioned me more than once to make sure my mouth stays well hydrated even if that means sucking on lemon drops.. she said she has seen to many people lose multiple teeth due to this medication side effect.
Wishing you an uncomplicated solution.. sorry I don't have familiarity with root canals after CRPS.
Kindly,
Tessa
