Unhappy RSD/CRPS Advice

Hey. I was wondering if anyone else living with RSD has a hyper sensitivity to their own hair on the afflicted limb? In my case I have has RSD for 8 years now in my right leg and about 6 months in my left as well. I can feel all my hair follicles on now both leg when my RSD is having an episode and I have to decide if it hurts bad enough to go through the pain of shaving it or wait until the pain of it just being there gets worse. I was wondering if anyone else feels this way and what they do about it. I was considering looking into laser hair removal at home (the no no or something like that) but I'm not sure if it will be more pain than gain. If anyone has more insight on this please share! Tonight I made the wrong decision and shaved my legs and they have been screaming ever since. Thank you for any advice or information.
