Hi. You are having a very rare disease. So, many doctors might not be aware of it. I think
1. You should consult your treating physician to discuss prognosis and treatment plan.
2. You should consult chronic pain clinics as pain is really bothering you and needs expert management.
3. You may consider consulting a psychologist. They may help you cope with this condition. You need a right mindset to fight this disease.
Hope it helps.
