Suggest Medication For Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

I have been diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome which I have suffered from for at least eight years. I am unaware of any prominent injuries to my lower left leg and ankle that could have spawned this _____ syndrome. Now that Lortab, a preferred treatment pharmaceutical, is hard to purchase, what are my drug and supplement options? I got good results with Lortab and Gababentin. Now what? I am a healthy 58 year old female. I have optimal body weight and am in good physical shape. Thanks

Hi,

There is no perfect medicine for regional pain syndrome. If Lortab suits you and keeps pain under control , there is no reason to change it. Ask your doctor for other suitable medicines available in your area in case this medicine is not available in your area.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
