Does anyone on here have CRPS

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome for those who don’t know. My doctor believes it’s my diagnosis, but he’s “not sure” and referred me to an IME ( independent medical examiner) to assess me and my binder full of medical records.

From what I’ve read online, the diagnosis fits. Hypersensitivity, allodynia, temperature differences, swollen appendage, the works in my dominant hand/arm/neck/back.

I wasn’t told what the initial injury was, but this is a lovely side effect that hasn’t gone away.

I’ve lost count of how many providers I’ve seen, how many scans I’ve had and appointments I’ve been to.

I also don’t have a pain management specialist (didn’t even think about it in the beginning) and I think it’s too late since it’s a worker comp case.

Can anyone here help me.

They were also thinking about a Spinal Cord Stimulator, but even that trial surgery was put on hold. Does anyone have experience with that? Does it actually help? What does it feel like? Is it a good idea?

Any information is helpful.
