Hi Maralyn, I hear you about the "broken feet" thing. Something silly I do that helps with spasms is to lay a soup can on the floor and roll it back and forth with the bottom of my foot. It really seems to help more than anything else. There is a condition called plantar facitis(sp?) that can cause severe foot pain also. A podiatrist may be able to help, and they deal with a lot of foot pain with diabetic patients, and there is a new drug out that is having very good results with pain. I can't remember the name right now (of course). My diagnosis of RSD finally came after every other cause of pain had been ruled out and a PT was thee first to put a name on it. I am so sorry to hear of your difficulties, but I have found all of the wonderful angels that post here to be the biggest source of support to me. I hope this makes sense and does not have many typos, I am just so tired tonight I can't think straight. Peace to you my friend, Lisa
