Default Surgery and RSD- Panic!!! Help

Well, I had a hip replacement almost 5 years ago which put my RSD into full gear spreading to all limbs. Now my hip is hurting a lot and I am afraid I will need surgery again. I can't live with my hip the way it is. What should I ask or tell the ortho they need to do if I need surgery- Ketamine? Nerve blocks- and will that help prevent spread even though they never worked for me?? I am so distraught- Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!

Debbie
