Dental Issues And CRPS
I have been living with CRPS for years. I am terrified as I know I have got to have something done as my teeth have been neglected and I'm having some major problems. My doc said she will work with a dentist to explain RSD-CRPS and how it may impact my condition. Now I have to find someone who will do the work and it may mean multiple extraction. No Money and most dental is NOT covered. Anyone have experience with this or know of denists in MAINE that have experience with this? Thanks. I'm⦠read more

Intrathecal Implants
How much pain medicine do you have to be on before they consider you for the pain pump? The reason I ask is because I have had 2 back injection the spine specialist isn't doing the third because I had a reaction to the 2nd one so he is referring me for the pain pump. I am in physical therapy and take oxycodone 4 times a day and fentonal patch every 72 hours and still in quite a bit of pain to the point of I can barely move.
The pump is extreme and there have been serious problems with PP patients. I lowered my dose and the pain is better. Good luck...
