So at this point, I am left with arms, legs, sides, stomach, the part of my back I can reach, hands & feet that look like I have been abused for years.....just wondering if this is related to my new found friend (RSD) or if it is just another friend I have yet to be introduced to?

Thanks and don't mind my sarcasm, it is just my way of dealing today!!
I don't even know if I have RSD but I am itching like crazy tonight!

Me too. I have a deep itch in my ankles and knees that comes and goes. I try to scratch it but it is so deep my scratching doesn't help. It drives me crazy. My Neuro says it is my nerves miscommunicating from the CRPS. I have a Ketamine combo cream she prescribed for me for the burning. I've tried it for the deep itch; it helps some. I also have tried Biofreeze (I keep in the frig). I have a new magnesium lotion I've ordered. I am hoping it might help with this itch too. I'd love to soak in a tub with Epsom Salts, but I can't handle the tub. Perhaps that would help you if you are still able.
