Confused Need some advice


Hi, I was diagnose with CRPS/2 last month. Had my injury July 2012 my right foot. The last 18 months had 5 different Dr.'s, 1 surgery (April 2013) told I have nerve damage (Sept. 2013). Have to walk with a cane, can't drive, can't work. I am on gabapentin 900mg 3X daily now & on Nucynta ER 50mg 2X daily for pain. This past week my pain is getting worse, going up my leg some, mostly on the back of my leg. my foot is swollen purple & very painful now. I don't see my pain dr. till March 12, should I call her about my pain? I can't find ways to clam the pain down, can't sleep much getting muscle cramps at nite. confused & don't know were to turn for help. My life is very stressful was in abusive relationship, have depression/PTSD on fluoxetine 40mg daily for that. Last Aug. was put on lisinopril 10mg/12.5mg 2Xdaily & metoprolol 25mg 2Xdaily for high blood pressure/high heart rate. I live with my Mom who has heart problems & parkinson. And my son(34) who has MD & bipolar. I'm the one who is to take care of them, now I have CRPS & can't do much these days. no income going for SSD waiting on hearing I'm just a mess & don't know what to do. Could use some advice please??????
