There is not even a delayed reaction to the temperature. she can place an ice cube on her foot with no reaction. She noticed it when she was in the shower and she stuck her foot under the faucet and she could feel the pressure of the water hitting her foot, but she couldn't tell that it was hot. she has no real "feeling" in foot. It is cloudlike she says, like she walks on a pillow. Her skin on the bottom of her foot is also scaley, it's hard to describe, I liken it to a dry desert that is all cracked.
She doesn't get the swelling, or discoloration that i've seen mentioned on the board either. I am beginning to wonder if we are dealing with something similar and different.
At the worst of this, she was in a wheelchair and like I mentioned even air touching her foot was excruciating. She couldn't walk at all.
