If not CRPS then what?

The OP is example of a patient that likely never had CRPS and that his CRPS expert will turn around and use as an example to his other patients as an example of someone he "cured". That may seem a little jaded, but those of us that have been battling CRPS for many years, all seem to have to these stories about "experts" that clearly don't know the basics about the disorder.

I'm not "cured", nor did any doctor claim the cured me. I still experience the symptoms i outline below.

0. pain/symptoms lasting longer then it should given injury.
1. discomfort while walking
2. sweating, swelling,
3. temperature difference, coloring
4. ROM loss and twitches
5. no other explanation for pain and symptoms.

Why isn't it CRPS? What else could it be? Do you know of some test that would be worth doing to find out? What basics are they overlooking?
