Maybe some meds are the culprits?

Dew, you're sweet, Bobber, you're too funny,, and Marleen you're wise. You'er all cool!


I do think meds can be the culprits. This stuff is, afterall ALL poison, toxins.
And has had been said, our bodies have many ways of ridding itself of toxoins, one is through perspiration.

I generally have wore my hair long. That's gotta go!
I can't stand taking a shower, then, breaking a sweat, and I'm not feeling clean anymore!
I actually have a set of clothes to put on after I bathe, then shower cool, towel dry, then put on first set of cotton. to dry off further for an hour or so. Then, into my regular clothes. What a tiring routine!
When someone says they're coming over, it's like, OK, I'm gonna shower, just come on in....

Haircut soon.

Thanks for all the kind words....

Pete

From Breezy55: Pete, first of all I wanted to tell you that when I was dx with RSD and for the first 3 years of taking a shower it did hurt! I also had a tech,working with me. When I came out of the shower I would be yelling in pain! My skin was blue and white. The tech called this blancing? As far as this going on as soon as I was put on Topamax and my dosage went up,this pain went down. Also there is some kind of deoderent that is always on t.v. That you can get at the drug store,or by your Dr. I also agree with the others on this there are things like hormone issues,etc. Well that is all for now on this one. Hang in there! You will over come!
