Yosh,

I also have CRPS II that was a result of several nerves damaged during surgery. I did end up having surgery a few months later in the same area and because the CRPS was not yet diagnosed it did cause spread, but I was in the acute phase and the surgery was directly to the nerves as they were trying to repair the initial damage. Had the CRPS not been missed I would have not had the surgery. I have been told that any surgery to that area will most likely cause spread but surgery outside of the that there is less chance, though still a possibility. Hopefully with your feet they will not be operating near where the initial nerve injury was. I also hope you discuss preemptive anesthesia so that you have the best possible outcome given the circumstances.

God Bless,
Tessa
