Close Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy

I was diagnosed with Causalgia in 1997. I was in a car accident in 1992 and a short time after the accident starting having symptoms in my right leg along my femoral nerve. I am grateful that it has not progressed to other parts of my body as it has for so many other people.

Treatments

Neurontin Somewhat Helpful

I lost my insurance and quit taking the medication. I didn't take it long enough to determine whether it was helpful.

Oxycodone Working / Worked

Anything that is opiate based has worked but I am hesitant to start taking narcotics on an on going basis.
