RSD,

I am so sorry, I hope you get through this. I, too, dread the coming colder weather, but so far since I started taking LDN and slowly weaning myself into slightly less warm shower and bath water I am "warming" up a bit. I have been able to exercise in an unheated pool, the water was in the 80's, for the last two weeks. I know I am still "cold," because everyone with me was boiling with the heat, while I was comfortable.

When I was so cold like you are I got no relief at all from socks, they actually seem to hold the cold in my foot and ankle, like you I had to sit with a heating pad-also an electric blanket. I pedaled on the InMotion device with an e blanket over me. I did this because I felt less cold when I kept moving.

At one point I was so cold and unable to warm up I considered setting up a teepee in my little den with a heater inside.
