I gave away most of my clothes too. Betweem the weight gain and (more importantly) the sensitivity now that the RSD has spread to my upper body and I could not handle anything that fit close to the skin there was just no way I could wear most of my clothes. I'm okay with it...I really had way too many clothes anyway. Now I just add an item here or there and I cannot buy anything without trying it on because it's just too hard to tell if a shirt will hit me in the wrong spot or not unless I am wearing it. People were very generous this Christmas and I was able to pick up some stuff after Christmas with the gift cards and money they gave me. So I very slowly start to feel like a more normal person as I find clothes and shoes that work for me besides sweats and oversized tshirts. Not that I care what other people think...it just makes me feel more normal and therefore happier.
