Welcome to NT. Sorry to hear what you are going through. I've never heard of cryoablation for CRPS and I'll be very honest and say I don't know much about it. But with "cryo" being part of the word I assume that means that there is ice involved in this treatment in some way? I would just caution you that with CRPS/RSD the rule of thumb is NO ICE because this can cause spread. Many doctors are not very knowledgeable about CRPS so I hope that you have one who IS knowledgeable and who specializes in treating the condition. I know that when you are new to the condition it can be very hard to determine if you doctor knows what he is talking about because you don't have the experience with it yourself and you have not had a chance to talk to people who are going through the same things. But if a doctor tells you it can be "cured", that it cannot spread, that you should treat with ice, that you should immobilize the limb, or that it can only every be in an arm or a leg...those are typically red flags (all of these of course apply AFTER the Dx or suspicion of CRPS and not before).

I'm glad that the Lyrica helps...in the beginning it was (for me) one of the very few meds that made a noticeable difference in the pain and kept me walking (for a time). Are you doing any sort of physical therapy? Physical therapy is usually very key to the treatment of CRPS (though you do need to have your pain controlled enough so that you can DO the physical therapy).

Take care and keep us posted. This is an excellent forum to ask questions, to get support, or even just to vent when you need to. I don't know what I would have done without it these past couple years.
