Cindi -

Sorry to hear what you're going through. This may be a good time to get a referral to a pain specialist, if you don't have one already. (Strong recommendation.)

As far as flairs go, I know a lot of people find that it really helps to "double-down" on their Neurontin for at least a couple of rounds, if you're taking it a number of times a day. (It really helps me.) That, and throw as much of your analgesic medication at it as you responsibly can. Then just rest in a quiet area, if possible keeping any and all CRPS affected extremities elevated.

Finally, it's important to take note of the circumstances that may have triggered the flair in the first instance, stress is a common one, so that you may be able to take measures to sidestep them in the future.
