Hello Folks,

I started to have foot pain in April 2011, 6 doctors later, I recieved the diagnosis of CRPS In past couple of months, I have had 5 sympathetic nerve injections, gone to physical therapy 2per week, done the hot and cold water thing. Also, take Lyrica and use a compound that is make by the pharmacy, it is topical. I have gotten some relief, but my foot is still on fire all the time,
especially in afternoon and evening. I have become quite impatient and wish amputation worked. I have bought shoes that are too big, so they don't irritate my foot, but my foot still hurts.
MD is suggesting Bier block, anyone had any experience with that? Not ready for the stimulator yet. Anyone think a tens machine helps? Seems like I am going to suffer for the rest of my life. Worried it I injure any place in my body the CRPS will show up there.
Any ideas?
Thanks for reading my story.
