I think everyone here is suffering in some way with RSD.

I *think* that the only thing that can be done for the sensitivity is desensitization. Some pain meds. may help.

Where is your RSD located?

Maybe you could start a home desensitization program, if you are unable to find a PT place for that. That might improve your sensitivity to a point where you can have things constantly touching you (ie- if the RSD is in your foot, you are able to wear a sock/ shoe). Somehow we have to try and have things touch the affected extremity. I know how hard that is... I have RSD in both my legs/ feet and hands/ arms/ shoulders. If I decided I couldn't have ANYTHING touch me in those areas I'd be wearing next to nothing. LOL, see what I mean?

I don't mean to sound harsh at all, but I think you can find something, somehow. Keep trying! HeatherAnne mentioned things she did for at home for desensitization, in my muscle spasms thread:

I've heard of people pouring RICE on their foot that was affected.

Hugs,
