I have been blessed with a great family to support me during this time but you're all absolutely right, it can be a very lonely disease to cope with..people who haven't had to deal with those sleepless nights due to intense pain, the heat like where ever you're affected is pressed up against a stove and that overwhelming feeling of little razors slicing at your skin, really don't understand what it's like. It would be nice to have people who know what I'm going through to talk to.

I to have RSD in my left foot 2 yrs of pain with no words to put to. I have been barefooted for 2 yrs since I can't get a sock or shoe on my left foot. I can only walk on my heel so my standing only last 20mins on a good day. My family don't understand I am me but stand me up or walk I am dieing. I am sick of the pain and lonlyness . My life went from 80miles a hour to snail mode . I am 50 years old and somedays I feel like I just sat and watch time leave me behind. I have no one to talk to and weeks go by before I see anyone. I have had n medical hope Drs, give me pills and say I am so sorry. I would be happy just to wear a sock on my foot then I would at lest look partly normal. So many people ask me if my ffot is broke. I now just say yes. I feel so useless . I would love to know if there is some hope of ever wearing a shoe again
