I wanted to thank everyone for their posts and support. Like I said its been almost 1 and 1/2 years that I've been dealing with this and it is very frustrating to do through this at such a young age (22). During this time there has been a noticable drop in my GPA and overall drive to do anything. If it wasn't for my girlfriend I don't know where I would be right now. Now that I have had my surgery I am more scared then before, the risk of full blow RSD is quite high I am told. So not only do I have to worry about getting the ankle itself taken care of now I have RSD looming over head. The pain I have been on this whole time has been bad at times, but mostly managable. I can't imagine dealing with full blow RSD.
