with me, I do have a lot of burning pain and sensitivity to touch, air, breathing, wind, water, and anything else that even THINKS of getting close to my foot... However, I also have RSD in my calves and there I don't have sensitivity but do have crushing pain (I liked the sledge-hamemer to the toes image--it sure feels that way, but in my calves!) and feels like the only way to get relief sometimes is if i were to peel the mucles off the bones (sorry, grusome image, but it does strangely feel like it'd help!), or amputate. None that I'm going to do, but that's the charactersitic of the pain. Weather changes percipitate a lot of the worsening in calf pain and other rsd pain. annie
