How To Cope With Excruciating Pain From CRPS?

Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with CRPS. I ve had a few flares now that are absolutely excruciating, and that s putting it mildly. I take breakthrough pain meds when needed, but I m in a flare now that I can t cope with. What would YOU recommend I take to get through a flare? I really need another opinion, please. Thank you in advance, Alyssa

hi
For flare ups oxycodone may be taken after prescription and consult a neurologist if he thinks spinal cord stimulation shall help, may be tried along with physical therapy and anti-inflammatory medications.Amytryptaline tabs may also be taken with methycobalamin.
Stay calm and relaxed and do not panic
thanks
