hi always. i hope you're having a better day today and enjoying your visit with your son. i just wanted to let you know that my pm dr prescribes neurontin (gabapentin) and a pain killer to manage my rsd pain and my psychiatrist prescribes an antidepressant called zoloft and antianxiety med to help manage my stress due to rsd. i was given cymbalta for about a month instead of zoloft but it didn't help me. i found that zoloft helped more. but everyone is different. you may want to talk to your dr or find one to talk to about maybe prescribing neurontin (gabapentin) along with a pain med to manage your rsd pain. maybe cymbalta will be enough for you, but i found that it wasn't for me. but everyone is different and i hope it helps you. but if it doesn't i just wanted you to know of other options that you might want to discuss with your pm dr. as far as a scs everyone is different with that too. i personally felt that it was too invasive for me and my neurologist concurred so i decided not to go that route. but some people have found that it helps. you may want to get several drs opinions on this before making a decision about it. and some drs are very helpful in setting up payment plans and working with you to help you get the medical treatmenst you need. just make sure you are covered before trying anything because some treatments like the scs are very expensive. whatever you decide i hope you feel better soon. there are good drs out there that can help you so don't ever give up hope. sending soft hugs your way.
