I have had CRPS for over 5 yrs. I have tried pretty much what all of us had tried before- epidermals, lumbar blocks, etc. My disease causes my Right Big toe to feel like an over inflated balloon that’s ready to pop. I tried a Medtronic Spinal Neurostimulator but had it removed after a year as no relief and ineffective. So I had it removed. After trying traditional and alternative medicine, I found Myofascial Release Therapy, or MFR. It has had a profound and positive in my quality of life and has given me hope of living with SOME pain, but not the debilitating pain before. I still need to take pain medications, but my quality of life has been improved beyond expectations.
In fact, I am currently being treated at the Sedona facility Therapy in the Rocks for intensive therapy. In 4 days, therapy has eliminated terrible pain in my feet when I wake up in the morning and foot pain as I’m going to bed, among other positive results that I will discuss at a later date. It’s not cheap but if you’ve tried everything, and you think there’s no hope. Think again. Even if you look in your area for a specially trained MFR therapist, it could make a huge change in your life. Might take several sessions but it’s worth it.
Good luck in finding relief.
