I am a RSD sufferer and the doctors just did a triple arthodesis on my foot due to the drop foot and horrible inversion. ( my foot faced the opposite way). I am now 3 weeks post-op and I have 2 screws and 2 or 3 metal plates in my ankle bone. There is a 50/50 chance that this will make my foot straight. No guarntee that I will ever walk again. My question is...Has anyone out there had this done with RSD and what is the recovery like?    Thanks and God Bless.
