I was in a car accident 6 years ago coming up on the 15th and up until the end of last year, I ignored any diagnosis that included RSD OR CRPS in it. I guess bc I didn't want to face another chronic issue (I have suffered Tom type 1 diabetes since age 9/ asthma since 2). After giving birth in June 2012 for the first time, my pain has escalated so rapidly that ignoring things isn't an option anymore. I now see a good pain specialist. However, the mix of pain meds he has me on, 60mgs of Opana ER every 12 hours and 30mg of Oxycodone every 8 hours, isn't even touching my pain. Oddly, when I began the Opana you couldn't even convince me that it was a pain med and it has seemed to decrease my thirst severely. I am wondering if anyone can suggest a better mix. I heard fentanyl patches have worked well for people with RSD. I just don't know of a better long acting narcotic. What works for everyone?
