I was put on a PCA (Patient Controlled Analgesia) with Morphine in it when I had an ingrown toenail removed a few years ago when my RSD first started and I was just diagnosed. It's a pump that allows you to have Morphine given every few minutes to try and control the pain. All you have to do is press a little button and it is put into the bloodstream automatically and then the Doctors can control how often you have been using it. It helped me a little bit so my Doctor decided to put me on oral Morphine but unfortunately, that didn't work as well and made me feel really sick (most people recommend taking something with it to stop nausea).

I hope it works should you wish to try it. As you know, everyone is different and no two people react the same.

Best wishes,
Alison
