Kim, I'm laughing because you just said it all!! Pretty much covers everything. I go to the doctor in the snow wearing totally open sandals - can't feel the snow, but I can sure "feel" socks or shoes! Awful burning. The first time my doctor saw me in sandals "in the snow" he looked at me with his mouth open ready to speak, then he just smiled. The look on his face was priceless, and I never said a word about my shoes or lack thereof. Just roll with the tide~~~~

I drive my husband nuts when I tell him all the "feelings" I have during a day's time. He just can not imagine these sensations.

I remember my neurologist said that the virus that started mine was gone and my own autoimmune system was eating away at my nerves in the area affected and he had to stop that with steroids. had to eat a lot of protean to repair the myelin sheath around the spinal cord that was damaged. that worked. got my coat back on but over damaged wires! sure wish i could find a repair manual. evidently the Doc's didn't get one either! anyone have any nerve pliers? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Fri, September 17, 2010 8:54:21 PM Subject: [TMIC] Re: tmic-digest Digest V2010 #475 my feet burn so badly that I can put lotion on them and it melts as it runs down my feet, i can't take anything toucing my feet ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, September 17, 2010 4:03:09 PM Subject: tmic-digest Digest V2010 #475
