I really am desperate for any input/suggestions about my situation.
I had to go on a leave of absence from work because the burning(Which is only on the bottom of my feet) became so severe and I found it hard to actually put any pressure on my feet. The bottoms of my feet just burn 24/7,

CRPS 1 is without nerve damage or RSD; CRPS 2 is with nerve damage (causalgia).
Ask your PM doctor for more information. A podriatist can only do so much. Ask for referrals to pain management. In my country pain clinics know the most about CRPS (treat it all round, not just the pain).
I wish you all the best for your upcoming appointment. Keep us posted.
It is a journey, has been for all of us. Good luck!
