Hi Everyone.

I'm hoping that I can get some info from all of you. Just a little background. I've had TOS for about 4.5 years. I had rib resection surgery 8/04. I've just been diagnosed with CRPS, but seems that I've had it since surgery. This is mostly in my left arm, forearm, hand and is now moving to my right arm.

Friday I had a nerve block. This was the most painful procedure I've ever had. The doctor thought I had an abnormal response. But the worst thing is that the nerve block didn't help me at all.

Along with the burning pain, and just plain hurting, I have these horrible muscle spasms. They're mostly at night when I can almost feel the build up of pain and then spasms.

Can anyone relate? What do you use for the pain? I'm currently on 600mg Neurontin X3 day, lidocaine patches and should be starting cymbalta soon. This is just not helping!!!

Any advice would be helpful.
