Dear Pete,
You said "My feet hurt so badly in the morning, all I do is say ouch ouch ouch when I first try to walk." It is nice to know I am not the only one in the am saying Ouch Ouch too! I absolutely HATE the first time I put my feet on the floor because it is sooo painful.

And grameE said "Something just happens in my whole body when I get shoes and socks on." I have the same problem too! I can't put socks on my feet until about noon. Even then the pain is horrible. It is nice to know (unfortunately my dear friends) that we are all different but have alot of the same issues to deal with. That is why I love this site. It is an amazing support system. I learned more here than with most doctors!! Best of luck to all and I pray each night for lower pain for all people suffering with chronic pain especially rsd.
Take care,
kathy d
