Want to talk with others. Have you found relief from CRPS?

I had an undiagnosed 3rd degree tear of my L calcaneal cuboid ligament (heel bone); so I walked around in severe pain, going from 1 specialist to another for 3 months before an orthopedist diagnosed both it and the CRPS ( then, 1995, more commonly known as RSD). Put me in a foot, ankle leg brace for 2-3 months, and put me on gabapentin.

Unfortunately I have several other problems " "illnesses " that I take a lot of medications for, the gabapentin didn't work for me at all.

How are you now?

The same thing happened to my 32 year old son almost 5 years ago.We live in the Atlanta area and I found a great support group I went to to better understand CRPS
YES,there does not seem to be many Drs who deal with this condition.Lyrica seems to help a little but ins.doesnt want to pay for it.I found support group online,very helpful to connect with others dealing with this condition.
