I have it in my left foot, for a little less than 2 years, but was only diagnosed in feb of this year. I have it relatively mild, because my pain is not severe and I don't have a lot of sensitivity on my skin -just a little like a sunburn. I have swelling, coldness, and pain when I walk or stand. I think that it is why it was not diagnosed early because my pain is not severe. Also i didnt have any injury. The doctor thinks maybe I had a tarsel tunnel entrapment but if i did it is gone. or else I am just prone to crps.

I had some lumbar sympathetic blocks, which helped some. Now I take gabapentin and voltairan. My pain is about 50% better than before. I try to stay positive - I am lucky because I can still drive and work and such. I am lucky to have a desk job, so I don't have to stand a lot. And I am lucky that it hasn't gotten worse and it hasn't spread.
