Lorigood,
I'm so sorry to hear that your primary physician is giving you so much grief. He has been treating you for a long time and treated you as if he was unfamilar with your case. Unfortanately, I think every CRPS patient has very simular story's of being treated poorly by a doctor. After I had my diagnosis I had to stay in the hospital for 30 days and I had to spend alot of time with nurses and I was told to look at my pain medicine as a nessicity and when I brought up my body becoming dependent on the meds, I was told that it is no different than a diabetic being dependent on insulin. However, a pain management doctor is really who you will need to see as that is their specialty. Either way, I would complain about your primary to a patient advocate because everytime we allow these types of situations to happen then it just fuels the ignorance of the bad doctors. How you were treated is not okay and please stand up for yourself.
