Hi Daniella,
The one Physical Therapist that I didn't stay with at the first of my therapy wanted me to do therabands and the bike. I couldn't do either. I switched and got some Therapist that didn't believe in that kind of strenious exercise for the RSD and TOS.
I haven't walked in awhile but at my other home I walked 3 to 5 miles a day for years out there. I love walking. I would walk and cry, walk and cry. My arms and hands though were the worst at the time. I would try to keep them in my pockets or inside of a jacket to keep them from swinging.
Since yours is in your foot and ankle, I would definatly take it easy and set your own pace.
When I moved over to my new place I overdid the moving and walking and am now having problems with my feet and haven't been able to walk for months.
You sound like a very enthusastic person that was very active and it will take you time to find your own pace but you will in time. Don't give up doing what you want to do though. Just take your time at it.
