Yes, I think I have a good case. I’m looking for a diagnosis; I want to find out what I have that has been causing my total leg pain for the past 4 years. My original diagnosis was CRPS, but recently learned that was a misdiagnosis. I’m scheduled to see a a neurologist at a nerve clinic in Marrero, LA next week. Maybe it’s nerve damage as in “post surgical inflammatory neuropathy brought on by 2 unsuccessful knee replacements, in the same leg.

Ah, yes, you may be on to something. It's tough when doctors struggle to properly diagnose. I hope your visit to the nerve clinic in LA proves to be beneficial. While you're there, maybe bring up Central Sensitization and see what the neurologist thinks. CSS is not always recognized by doctors, but can be what's left when all else gets ruled out. Also, if you have any large teaching hospitals or universities nearby, it may be another option. Good luck at your appointment! Will you check back with Connect and let us know how all goes?
