Have you tried Lyrica for the pain. Two pills a day, total 300mg has helped me. The spasms are helped with Baclofen and vallium. On bad days that I overdo myself, I sometimes have to take Lortab to ease the pain, not rid myself of the pain, but ease it. I don't think that one ever rids themself of pain after contracting RSD (CRPS). I pray that something helps.
