Vitamin C intravenous infusions are wonderful!!!!!! They truly stopped my pain from spreading from my foot to my ankle after I twisted it. I swear by them and there has been lots of research. If you go to google scholar and then type "vitamin c rsd" you will find some of that research. I asked my doctor how to find other practitioners who do vitamin c infusions. He told me to go to the American College for Advancement of Medicine's website or to call them to find out where those doctors are. I use my cell, and I couldn't find the info from my cell (I can't sit at the computer, I use my cell) but it's supposed to be there.

Second, I have tried mirror therapy for the past days, slowly, and it really is working in helping me move my foot more. I am so exicted. Here is a link I found on youtube on how to do it:

Good luck to all!!!!!!!
Thanks for the link for the mirror box therapy. I just asked my pelvic pain specialist about but he was not aware of anyone in our area that could work with me. How does one do this if you have RSD in both of the lower extremeties?
