Hey Songbird,

Congrats!!

About the lidocaine infusions - this type of therapy is best for cold allodynia so if that is a major symptom for you then this can be quite effective. An easier way to determine if you will benefit by it is a drug called Mexiletine which does the same thing as getting a lidocaine infusion in a pill form. This did not help with any of the other symptoms of CRPS like the burning, electrical shocks, knife like pain etc.,

I do hope you are able to get whichever treatment will help you the most and quickly.
