Liming along

I too am stuggling with RSD in my foot. My foot was crushed by a forklift 1.5 year ago. Along crushed bones came the crushed nerves, ligaments, tendons and everything else. I have had about 6 or more nerve blocks which had really seem to help. until totally out of no where my foot the pain came screaming back for no apparent reason. Not sure where to go from here. More blocks or NOT??
