MY DB levels were very low & is now on testosterone injections every 10 days. There is another form available if you don't want injections, it's in the form of a roll on and is applied daily to the armpits. If you need the pain medication stand firm and tell your doctor the two are not mutually exclusive. Sending you positive thoughts :hug:

Unfortunately, CRPS/RSD and its treatments bring other problems with them. If you find that you have a new problem ask for all options available to you and all of the side effects that accompany each option. I have found that it should be a team approach and not just a single doctor's decision. You are also part of that team. When you do get a diagnosis google...google....google. Good luck with this and stay strong.
