My name is Victoria & I was diagnosed approx. 8 moths. Ago with CRPS . After having a lumbar back fusion. I had two nerve blocks by a pain management Dr. 5 wks. After my surgery but had no relief of my pain. At first my legs and feet were mottled , red and purple with pain, burning and swelling. Now at 9 moths. Post surgery I am still dealing with pain & burning. I am on gabapenton & I occasionally have to take Vicodin (lowest dose) I believe that at this point the gabapenton is making it worse. My blood vessels in my feet and legs bulge out & I’m getting areas of vericose veins. I’m just wondering if other people feel gabapenton is making things worse. In the beginning my pain and burning was mostly in my feet and ankles. Now I have pain and swelling in my calves and legs. I’m retaining a lot of water in my legs. I would appreciate any input.
