Unfortunately, my in PA and we haven't had a very warm summer.

You are right, warm weather does not make the pain disappear but it makes it tolerable. Me and my husband are toying with the idea of moving here but due to pollution, which is bad for my lungs, we do not know which is beneficial.

Glad you got the infection under control. I know how it reeks when what makes one pain better makes another pain worse. You feel danged if you do and danged if you don't.

Hang in there & do what ya gotta do. :wink:

Doc

Though my infection is under control, so far as of April, but my shortness of breath still bad.

You are right, we just have to do what we gotta do....😄

The shorts, not the bermuda type, give me relief because of its minimal material touching my skin. The pants or anything that touch my whole legs is torture. i tried to slowly introduce my skin to more materials like wearing bermuda shorts because i will be back to the states just in time for the cold weather, darn, I really cried. It was so painful!!! ..I thought i need to force my skin to get use to it again, but I guess, it will never be. Just the thought of wearing pants or the very though of the cool weather makes me anxious.

I have certain spots on my legs that get very painful with clothes rubbing against them. If you have lidoderm patches try them. They work for me.

thank you hopeful for your suggestion but the unpleasant sensation (the word "unpleasant" is an understatement) is "leg-wide". So, I cannot cover the whole two legs. I use the Lidoderm in my feet, though. i am glad this helps you.
