Hi. I have the same over-sensitivity in my skin - legs, arms sometimes back and face. I also have painful feet. So far, there has been no cause found in my condition. Mine started in all the areas I mentioned. Do you feel pain with the touch of your sheet? I do.

I don't know if this common, when I wake up in the morning I don't feel the stinging (like sunburned skin), burning sensations. But once I get up, there it goes again.

I take gabapentin and a whole bunch of supplements. I just recently increased my gabapentin dosage from 1200 to 1500mg. It makes the pain tolerable. For two days now I'm using Lidoderm patch for the feet. It is not 100% pain free feet but it makes me move around.
