I am a patient with dysfunctional spine and left lower extremity hemiparesis and was diagnosed with CRPS in my left leg. CRPS is a rare disease, especially for a young female patient in her 20s and early 30s.

CRPS can be caused by a variety of reasons, but in my case, it was due to a fall from a high rise that resulted in major fractures to my spine, pelvis, left hip, knee, and foot. At the time, I underwent immobilization surgery with pins in my back, pelvis, and knee.

Later, the titanium support in my spine broke and I had surgery to remove it, so there are currently no pins in my body. Although it is convenient for me to move and breathe, I still feel that my back is unstable when I am living.
