I don't know what to do. send him though more test? just live with this answer and him just be on advil the rest of his life. cause they have him on Neurontin now. was on 1x 100mg for a week, just got done with week 2 of 2x for a week now hes on his 2nd day of 3x a day. and it hasn't really changed much other than he sleeps some nights . I know it can take awhile to take effect but, theyre answer was *find a nerve pain med that will work and that's it.... other than counseling and psychologists. I mean god my kid isn't crazy. hes not making it up. *sorry just upset. but the nurse just told me pretty much its my choice *test or deal with that he just has chronic pain and they don't know why. oh yea and im suppose to throw him back into all activities wtf?!

Are you seeing a Dr at a major medical center? I found that none of the Doctors local to us really had any experience with CRPS, and it wasn't until we went to a major children's hospital that we started getting the info we really needed.
