It could be coincidence and all fall in line with how warm it's been. It's unseasonably hot here. Heat makes me feel terrible. Guess just gotta find out chicken or egg. I thought I was too young for this lol Dubious, I'm curious as to your thoughts on the ace inhibitor link. |

I have a hard time with the heat too. Even a little swelling for me amplifies everything. I remembered you had been on the ACE inhibitor before and it absolutely may be coincidence that your symptoms increased after the dose change. How our CRPS reacts to meds we are on is just one of those things to consider with their use.
I had decent pain relief from nortriptyline but it makes me vasodilate like mad when it is warm which makes things worse. This probably doesn't bother most people. I ended up going down on it and doing about the same. Don't cha just luv being special?

Right now I have nothing that gives me pain relief. The gabapentin doesn't work so well anymore. I'm just gonna bet the bank on these injections! Lol this sucks! Of all the things i could have happen with my hand from repetative motion (if that's what this truly is) why did it have to be this? OH YEAH! It's cause I'm super special hahahahah |

You ARE super special . FYI, amlodipine is usually well tolerated if you have to switch stuff around. Congrats on the weight loss! That is a real challenge on gabapentin. I can't imagine you wouldn't at least feel better with the weight off. even if it doesn't make it so you can get off BP meds you might be able to decrease...
