Default New here Onset of CRPS/RSD

Hi Everyone, I'm new here. I'm looking for help. I was burned last year on my forearm while on vacation summer of 09. The burns were 3rd degree. A buffet table at a very famous hotel in Las vegas blew hot steam and boiling water all over me. My right arm taking most of the damage.

I went back and forth to doctors for about a year before the pain became to much for me to handle. I had to have surgery on my right forearm to relieve the pressure on my radial nerve from scare tissues.

That surgery was a bust. My surgeon saw once he got in the damage was worse than he thought. He told me in my recovery room that I would have to have another surgery, this time take a piece of the sural nerve out of my leg.

I know may also have rsd, but my doctor told me he doesn't think so. As a percaution he sent me to a Pain management doctor. I'm taking 600 mg of Gabapentin 3x a day . It seems as though it is getting worse. Every time i pick my foot off the ground I'm in pain . I don't know what to do, It has been 3 months since the surgery.
