Oh CRPS....: First obtain a second opinion, if you haven't already. Crps can be confusing to evaluate and even more to treat. Another opinion is always helpful, more so, if the opinion is from some one who treats the condition. There are no set rules but rehab therapy, psychotherapy, medications and nerve blocks are the most common starting treatments. I hope this helps. Healthtap is here for further help.
