CRPS Symptoms

Just came across a scratch piece of paper that I wrote down all the symptoms I was having before I saw Dr. Patel for the first time (over a year ago, before I was diagnosed with CRPS).  I literally thought I was just having 'nerve pain' as that is what my surgeon thought, since I got Drop Foot after surgery.  They kept telling me that the nerve pain would be painful.  Little did they know, or myself, I developed CRPS.  It brings back a lot of bad memories as I was in so much pain at the time, and crying nightly.  I feel so fortunate to have been referred to such a wonderful doctor that has taken most of that pain away.

(Note I brought first time I saw Dr. Patel)
