How do I help muscle contractions due to RSD (reflex sympathetic dystrophy)?

I take Flexeril to treat my contractions, but sometimes this is not even enough especially at night. I am trying potassium supplements now because I have heard that this can reduce the symptoms. I am getting ready to have a pain stimulator inserted that is made by Medtronic. Check out their site in the Internet. I am hoping to be able to stop most of my medications after this is placed. Good luck with your problem.
