And I also wish that my podiatrist would have known more about CRPS when he kept me in a camwalker for months telling me "it will come around; just have to give it some time".

Immobilizing the foot was probably the worst thing we could have done, and valuable time was lost.

CRPS is possibly one of THE most misunderstood medical disorders, even by professionals including doctors.

Once I was properly diagnosed, I spent many, many hours educating myself, interviewing (and rejecting many) doctors to be on my "treatment team".
