So sorry you had to come here to find us, but it's a very encouraging group of people. My son is 13 and had ankle fractures and surgery last September and was diagnosed in December with CRPS. Little paw is right about the pool, it's the best place for therapy, because it doesn't hurt nearly as much to move and walk in water. And it relieves anxiety that is partly caused from all that boyish energy building up inside with no outlet. Do they have you on a vitamin regime yet? Magnesium helps with spasms, Vitamin C with pain, etc. Also, lots of stretching and massage may help with the spasms. It can take a couple months for the vitamins to start making a difference, but they do help. And no, you're not crazy. Not everyone has the same symptoms. For my son, the color changes only appear when he's cold or is dangling his foot. Other times it looks normal.
