clonadine did not work for me. I use norvasc, and have better color and temperature in the affected areas if I use it. I have High Blood pressure, and am on avapro also.

Baclofen really helps the electric shock feelings, & the spasms. Does not eliminate them, but does help. And, it is not expensive.

Voltaren and also an "RSD cream" that I have posted the "recipe" for before, also help a little.

Aleve at prescription doses helps, but at what cost? All the anti inflammatories are supposed to be bad for a person, long term. So I use it rarely. I do think I would be better, overall, if I took naproxin regularly.

I have not used any pain med that has really helped. Tried many of them. Strong ones. Dilaudid helps sometimes. Vicuprophen with additional motrin helps, but none of them help very much. I use them sometimes during stormy weather. Tried patches, shots, blocks etc. Meditation helps as much as anything. Calming down and not tensing up with the pain is important.
