Hello-

I have been diagnosed with pn-probably hereditary-but neg for CMT by the DNA testing. Have been on the pn site for about a year now. After having ankle surgery 7 weeks ago, I developed severe nerve pain in my foot. Podiatrist said that my nerve was damaged below my left ankle bone during surgery and "would be fine in a couple of days"-that was 6 weeks ago. After several appt with him, he told me "that I better get over this or I will end up with CRPS." Thanks Dr. Now I have an appt this week with my neurologist (the one who did all the testing for CMT and nerve conduction study). What type of Dr would be the best to diagnose CRPS and TREAT it if that's what I have. I belong to a large HMO and have a feeling this is all going to get brushed aside if I don't go in with some knowledge and ask the right questions-

Thanks,

Judie
