The earliest reports of gabapentin's use in treating pain were case reports of a few patients with CRPS/RSD who improved with gabapentin. Unfortunately, there have never been larger, controlled studies that definitively prove the benefits of gabapentin. As of yet, there are no studies in CRPS/RSD for pregabalin.

CRPS changes in bone metabolism. Multiple drugs used in managing CRPS are the same drugs used in neuropathic pain such as gabapentin, or Neurontin
In one randomized, blinded trial in 58 patients with CRPS, gabapentin had a mild effect on pain . In the largest placebo-controlled trial of gabapentin that included CRPS patients (85 of the 305 studied), gabapentin was shown to cause a significant reduction in pain, compared to placebo [ 8 ].
Neuropathic pain is a prominent feature of CRPS I, and is often refractory to treatment. Since gabapentin is an anticonvulsant with a proven analgesic effect in various neuropathic pain syndromes, we sought to study the efficacy of the anticonvulsant gabapentin as treatment for pain in patients with CRPS I.

This story is great fun; it's sexy too. I especially enjoyed the heroine/narrator's personality, including her fairly strong—but decidedly quirky—ethical principles. I do feel sorry for her uncle, though. He got left out of the action entirely. Perhaps there will be a Part 3? Fine with me, if so.
Regarding the pain in your feet, have the doctors given you a diagnosis yet or are they still looking? Also, have they considered that the pain might not originate with the feet? I spent years in a lot of pain that started in my left foot and the doctors I saw never gave me a solid answer. Just a couple of years ago, a new doctor I was seeing finally made the diagnosis. I have a very rare neuro-inflammatory disease called CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) which can affect any limb and often spreads over time. Once I knew and was able to start learning more, it helped me so much to understand what was causing the pain and find at least some things I could do to help reduce it. Although there is no known cure for CRPS, and the disease continues to advance as I get older, it has at least given me a starting point for research and trying to understand.
Having to live with any type of chronic pain is something that is so difficult to truly understand for people who have never experienced it and while I am not bi-polar, I have had to start taking meds for depression (and I was already on meds for ADHD and anxiety). I greatly sympathize with the things you have been through and truly hope that things are getting better. You have incredible talent and I would love to see you feeling better and able to share more of your great stories as you can.
