The doctors have me on neurontin for RSD or what is now called Complexe Regional Pain Syndrome. It is a nerve condition that is extremely painful. It is caused by a trauma (great or small) to an extremity to the body (arm, toe finger). I use natural ways to help control the pain like yoga and meditation since the medicine doesn't even help all the pain go away. I have tried acupuncture which only helped alittle for treating the RSD. I am looking for vitamin or herbal therapy alternative because there are so many bad side affects to the medication like blurred vision, mood changes, memory thought processes interrupted, dizziness. I can't even drive safely anymore and I am in the prime of my life and it has been taken away from me. Any help from someone who has had experience with this disorder and has used alternative treatments would be so appreciated.
