    Do I Belong Here?

    I'm 65 with super skin contact sensitivity on my legs. It started last summer. Felt like my legs were burning even with a sheet over them.

    Canadians - hello!

    Hello! I'm new to the forum and as much as I love Americans and every one out there, wanted to start a thread for Canadians, as I live in a fairly remote area in Ontario and am hoping to reach out to my fellow countrymen (or in this case I'm sure mostly women!) I've recently been diagnosed with...
