I have RSD full body stage 3. I ahve been taking Suboxone for almost 1 year and I love it. It blocks all your pain and you can live a normal life and stay out of the wheelchair. So what is everyone scared about?? loosing your pain?? Having a normal life?? Kicking the narcs and opiates aside? Quite making your doctor rich and do something to help yourself! or if you all like being in pain and giving up on life, I hope you all enjoy having a pity party of poor me. Suboxone works and it's way better than living on drugs and in pain till the day you die!

I am glad to hear that suboxone is working for you. It was recomended to me for pain a year ago by my therapist who knew that suboxone was recently being used for treating pain. I have also posted on this before. My brother an ER Doc had suggested this as well. I did some research at the time and posted it here. I was unable to get my Doc to prescribe suboxone. I am currently looking for a new doc and will consider this treatment when selecting a new Doc. You are however, are the first person I have heard of personally (thru this post) that has used suboxone for pain relief.
Finding someone that can prescribe this is one issue.
Not all of us are able to get that treatment. Some are bound by workmans comp and Doctors that control our treatment. Others may be limited by ecomonics.
I do appreciate your information on the suboxone! However, I do think the " Pity Party " quote may have been unfair to many! Also, I don't think there are any of us that enjoy the pain. I have had RSD since
1989, full body and have tried many treatments throughout the years. This hasn't been an option until recently. Give us a break, please! We are all doing the best with what we each have available to us.
Bests,
