Gotta tell you Jimbo, this is a loaded question.

Every case of CRPS is somewhat unique. That means what works for one doesn't work for the other. As they say: Your results may vary!

You must experiment. I like to keep opiates as a last resort. Yes, they can be effective, but there are lots of other things to consider with them like dependency, potential damage to internal organs, etc.

I spent a year on percocet and about a half a year weaning myself off of it.

Sometimes it is best to get MULTIPLE opinions before embarking on a new meds strategy. Scratch that. It is ALWAYS a good idea to get multiple opinions.

Good luck to you!
