I have been using ice all of the tine. It feels good, how does it harm the healing process? I think my neurologist knows very little about this. My next appt is not for 2 months. I agree I need a different doctor. Who should we see, we live just west of Shreveport, LA?

Also how can I be sure I have Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome. I know the neurologist was guessing. Here is the meds they have me on.

Dairy Digestive Supplement - at least one a day

St. Joseph 81 MG - 1 each day

Omepraxole 20 MG - 1 per day ( anti-acid)

Meloxicam 15 MG - 1 each day (anti-inflammatory)

Hydrocodon Acetaminoph 7.5-500 (1/2 tablet every 4 hours for pain)

Methocarbamol 750 MG (1/2 tablet every 4 hours muscle relaxer)

LYRICA 75 mg Capsule for Nerve pain, (2 in am, 1 lunch and 2 in pm)

Fanasteride 5 mg (replaces Avodart for prostrate)

Cymbalta 30mg (to heal nerves)

It's a bunch of drugs and I don't like taking so much. I am in physical therapy twice a week. If this is what I have I need som help soon.
