My story is too long for this particular application so I'll give a brief summary. I fell from a cliff and injured my ankle while working. My ankle quickly became cold and it was hard to walk. Dispite the sever discomfort I continued to work until the pain I was having spread to my other foot and leg and then went into my arms. I lost my job I had two sympathetic nerve blocks and underwent countless hours of therapy. I took upwards of 3600mg of gabapentin daily along with a myriad of other drugs to try to get things under control. I'm far from pain free and my story has yet to end as I eye ankle surgery.
