    • Close Sciatica

      Hi, I am 26 and I have had sciatic problems for 3 years. I have a herniated lumbar disc and the sciatic is pinched because of this. I have no health coverage; and my local clinic doesn't deal with things like these. I am prescribed 2 medications for it. I am a homemaker and muddle thru my days happily, when the pain allows. On some days I just mope around praying for relief. I'm also a bi-polar. And I have an addiction to smoking, nicotine is hard to give up!

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I was diagnosed bp 4 years ago. I just started meds for the first time. I haven't met a lot of bp people. So I am looking forward to talking about our difference.
