Well I went to the ER on Thursday. After a clean xray the CT scan showed a fracture on the first metatarsal. The pain was out of control even on Dilaudid IV. They ended up with a combo of IV Dilaudid and Tylenol working better, but admitting me for pain control. I spent two nights and I'm home now with more meds and a splint. I saw the Podiatrist today and he doesn't want to cast because that's bad for the CRPS. So we stay with the splint so I can remove it and move my ankle around three times a day. And after I come back we may go to the boot (ugh, I just got OUT of the boot).
Breaking your foot when you already have CRPS is NOT recommended.
