Hi i am suffering with the same problem.I fell when i was hill walking sprained my ankle and it went on from there. I have been on crutches for two and half years now at age 21 you feel like you life has stopped. I cannot weight bear at all,touch,air,vibration or water. I myself have had 4 lumbar blocks,3 infusions and nothing as of yet has helped. I go to physio 1-2 times a week and seem to get no where. We have tried lots of things such as tens machine like you mention. Nothing seems to make a diffrence as soon as there is any contact with my foot i want cry and scream with sheer pain!! I was wondering if you could tell me abit about the herbal medication that you take? I have been on alot of other medications but ive never felt any relief from them.
