It wasn't long-within two weeks or so. I could drag myself upstairs and I had more energy. Pool therapy combined with the LDN helped. Also I kept using my seated elliptical and pushing my feet on the WonderCore.

I think we have to try various approaches based on our individual situations. I am convinced that getting the swelling down with the Bowen Technique helped increase the circulation in my right leg. I gave up using any kind of pressure, because I thought it could potentially be damaging the delicate lymph vessels ; preventing them from doing their jobs. ( The PT I saw did not understand that my leg turning red was a bad thing, she thought it indicated increased circulation-I gave up telling her it was a sign of blood pooling. With CRPS you have to be hyper aware of your peculiar signs and needs-I pretty much figured out I was on my own)
