I've been in alot of pain for the last couple of days, last night I had to take my vicodin that was left over from a past hospital visit. My left leg is real inflamed. I told the nurse of my last visit that it was angry. I took some antibiotics left over from when I orginally was diagnosed last year. Believe me it pays to hold on to some prescriptions because you never know when you will need them again. It's been nine months now this year that I've been on disability and I don't know what I will do, I can't look for work when I can't get around. My previous job abandoned me. If it wasn't for my faith I would be tempted to do myself in, that would be the practical thing to do since I'm no good to myself or anybody else like this. I don't want to face the holidays like this.

Donna, Please don't talk that way. SUICIDE IS NEVER THE ANSWER!!!!! I know things seem so discouraging right now. Concentrate on doing everything you can to get better. Find out everything you can about your condition. Ask the doctor if there is anything else you should be doing. Ask if your diabetes affects your condition. Be proactive.
I know you are struggling financially but it is not your fault that you can't work. See if there is any kind of assistance avaible to help with rent, etc.
I understand how difficult it is to deal with problems alone. I am always here and I care about you. I really think you need to see a therapist. There are places that charge according to your ability to pay or ask your church if there is counseling there.
Please hang in there. I am praying for you.
