Default Spreading Toes...

So, the inevitable has happened....the toes on my left foot are spreading. No one has answer for me and no amount of PT has stopped it. I also cannot have a run of the mill pedicure, because I am having severe spasms when someone touches the bottom of my foot. Shoes are becoming a problem so I am wearing Crocs or Birks. I miss my high heels and my once beautiful legs are becoming so ugly. I have started getting tattoos on my right leg to cover up the ugly knots and color changes. People ask me if they hurt and I tell them that the pain I live with everyday is WAY worse than getting the tattoos. The endorphin rush is amazing and holds my RSD pain at bay for at least a day. I haven't gotten any tats on my originally affected leg, so I may start with something small,so we'll see how it feels soon.
