Hi Hyper,
Welcome. Where you ever dx'ed with CPRS?
If you ever find out what's going on let us know.
Your roommates INHO are being crappy.
What kind of ice cream?
Be safe...

Yeah, I was. It seems like nobody is actually really trying to treat the initial problem, and just the pain. Sure ligaments take some time and physical therapy to heal. However, everything I've read has said the foot is an incredibly complex thing, and one thing throws it all off. I damaged several parts. This wait and see bs because the x-ray said nothing is broken is driving me insane.

It was blueberries and cream, and delicious.

Hi there. New member here. I'm a 23 yr old, recently diagnosed with essential tremors. Had an upper limb tremor since i was 16. been progressively worsening since then. Currently on Metoprolol 50mg xr bd and Clonazepam 0.25mg od. Any suggestions on dealing with clonazepam associated drowsiness?
p.s. Can someone tell me how to make a new post? I have no clue how to do that hence i'm replying to another post. Thanks.

Hey Hyper,
I am sorry to say this but if it's really CRPS that there isn't a known cure yet. Treating the pain is about all that can be done. My guess is that for some reason this is what your docs suspect but for some reason aren't discussing it. Remember that's just a guess.
Ask your docs point blank if they suspect CRPS...

Hypersnack,

So sorry you have to be here but we're glad to offer support. If you feel like something is really wrong in your foot mechanically (I did and I was right) maybe see about getting an overread on your MRI. I had extraordinarily different opinions on my MRI from two different radiologists. One didn't see a problem at all, the other identified a 50% tear missed by the other guy. The way this happened is the overread was done a radiologist with a lot of experience in the foot, he'd been an Army doc and saw a lot of foot issues so had gotten continuing ed for that anatomy. I actually went to another radiology operation in my town with the disk and paid about $150 to have him read it. I got a lot more info and it altered my treatment plan. If you call you can find out who their foot person is. Otherwise some of the centers send their stuff remotely to India, etc. no lie and you have no idea if that person has an interest in the foot.

I hope you get some relief soon. Sending Healing Love
