Hi I have had RSD since the late 60s and I was a kid then so not very savy .
But I see people who tried meds and got in trouble with them and so fights with their heart that no one should use them .
Maybe not for the the largest per cent but Opiates do help some people . I wish they would do drug tests etc. to see no one is trading them for money or some other drug which seems to happen a lot .It's hard living on the tiny amount you must on SSI but selling your anything only makes it harder on the people that do need them.Some may become addicted but I am dependent on my meds and nothing else works and I have been around so long I have pretty much tried all things Doctors have tried
I hope you dont need drugs or won't do them ,but RSD is different in each of us ,please allow that some meds may work for a small amount too
Thank You
