Suggest An Oral Opiate For RSD Patients
Hi Dr. Grief I have RSD and currently am taking a significant amount of opiods 30mg of Oxycontin, 10mg Oxycodone and Ketamine troches for breakthrough pain. My problem is sometimes I fall or the pain is not able to be controlled by these meds requiring an ER visit for morphine/dilaudid. My doctor will give me whatever but I am looking for an oral opiate I can take stronger than y current meds for emergency purposes only

hi,
As mentioned by you that you have RSD I wish to help you in a natural way. To let you know that medicine are always present for providing the symptomatic relief. If taken for a longer time then there might be a chance of having other issues and may lead to future contra-indication of the pain killers.
To go with the RSD, it can be helped and resolved with the natural form. Physical therapy can be of help as I have seen many cases who have had RSD and along with medication and physical therapy they all perform well now without pain of the RSD.
Also, physical therapy is a long and painful process but I have seen 99% recovery in my cases. I hope the same from you.
physical therapist can help you by Therapeutic ultrasound therapy and TENS therapy. later on providing the exercises for stretch relax of the muscle fibres will help reduce the pain. initially it will be a painful process but as practiced regularly will reduce the pain and regain the full functionality.
if you have any more questions you can ask me and I will be happy to help you.
With the grace of God I wish you a speedy recovery
Regards
