I also am curious of what type a dosage of pain meds everyone is on. I'm on morphine 15 mg er 2xs a day and 15 mg ir as needed.

UGH! If it were me, I'd ask your PT not to touch the foot! It sounds to me like he has never dealt with a CRPS patient before. I'd also ask him how many other patients with CRPS he has worked with before. I will bet that you are his first one. Physical therapy can take place without him touching you. CRPS patients don't generally respond well to others touching or grabbing their Symptomatic Limbs.
Therefore to answer your question, yes, it is very common to grow more and more sensitive to the touch. It is part of the disease In My Opinion.
