No experience with it, Blueflower, also never heard of "plexus". What does it entail precisely if I may ask.

For me the oral meds (neurontin/gabapentin) + pain patches (buprenorphin) and sublingual buprenorphin work for pain relief. I do have chronic stage CRPS. So that has been with me for 21 years this year (21 September: 21 years). I got no pain relief for almost 3 years, then mild pain relief at first that took the sharpness away (Tramadol), and since 2004 I have been on Neurontin / buprenorphin and that is what brings my pain to an acceptable level (it's "liveable").

It's been a long road and journey for me...

Hopefully it won't have to be for you.
