I meant to mention oral steroids as well. Dr.Stanton-Hicks wrote of a recommendation of prednisone 10mg 3 times daily for ten days in early cases. I tried that early on and it did help knock the inflammation down. I had two rounds so needed to taper.

I can post a couple links to some helpful videos tomorrow. One is from a Stanford Pain specialist. Lots of great info in there on research, treatment and neuorplasticity (which can work for or against you) hence the benefits of early treatment.

Aack I saw your response after putting this addendum......

I agree your pain is important and especially with CRPS you don't want to push too hard. Your system is ramped up already. Not all PTs are familiar with CRPS patients.

More tomorrow, gotta turn in,
