Hello,

Thanks for writing to us,
I have studied your case with diligence.

RDS needs prolonged multimodal treatment,
Tryptomer, and calcium channel blockers will help you.
These may also help for depression,take them consulting your doctor.
If required sympathetic block can be done.
Do start and continue physiotherapy.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
