Does your OT also have you using mirror therapy to help with desensitization? And are you on amitriptyline in addition to the lyrica to help with the muscle spasms and sleep?

Yes, diligently practicing desensitization and slow gradual increase in limb use will help. Anything that helps promote use will actually help this includes warm water soaks and daily therapy to promote use and distract you from pain. It takes a ton of patience as it is a very slow process but, at least for me it helped me tolerate at least some clothing on my hip/thigh.. which obviously isn't an area I could leave bare daily.

I do hope it helps you as well,
Tessa
