Does anyone get hopeless from the pain and isolation? It hurts too much to go out many days especially when there are clouds, or before rain. Even the meds don;t work. CRPS and more for 5 years. I sued to do so much Now even shopping if I make a mistake and pick something up with wrong hand its agony for 3 days. Even going to movie if I don;t wear right jacket the air conditioning will cause such severe burning I feel like I'm in a fire literally.

Has anyone else ever been hopeless desperate and what do you do when you can;t do much.

Yes....keep up the fight though...your story can help someone else and keep you above water.

I was to where I could not stay still, bed to lift chair, and back and forth. I didn't understand what "as needed for pain" meant. My Dr. said go ahead and take the pills up to two a day. That greatly improved things as later I realized that depression had been looming. If all RX avenues are not working, try anything you can think of. Self massage, Rehabilitative deep tissue massage, Accupuncure, the list is long. I use Mortons Epsom Salt Lotion on the backs of my hands and tops of the feet to quell the sensitive skin. I hope you find some relief, if not, you are still in the hunt right? Good Luck, Ken in Texas.
