Chronic Pain Support Group
Physicians and professionalsdefine pain as chronic if it lasts longer than three to six months and is persistent. It's distinct from acute pain that is a direct result of injury or trauma. This support group is dedicated to those suffering from chronic pain. Discuss treatments that have worked for you, find advice for your specific experience, and find support. You're not...
OK here it is. A challenge and a chance to get outside the box. Let's see if we can get this thread over 100 posts!!!!!!
If you need a hug....say it.
If you are here......say it.

If you need to talk or have a question.........do it.
If you feel bad, good, sad, mad, blessed, happy,etc......I think you got it.

The things that were so easy to do are now so hard and have to be done whist enduring constant pain.
Hug please!!!!
When the movie, As Good as it Gets, first came out, I was entertained by it. Now, the title has a different meaning and really hits home. I'm trying to accept that my problems are not going to suddenly start reversing. I can't go back to a younger age and even if I could, it wouldn't mean that the future would be any different.
I have well meaning people in my life who still think I just haven't hit on the magic cure or perfect doctor. It's really stressful to work on acceptance while being pestered to try every herb or exotic juice they say has changed the life of so and so!
My Mother actually called me the other morning (well, she calls every morning) and was angry and almost frantic because she thinks I'm not trying hard enough to find the right specialist!
For crying out loud...

Wow I am so tired I can barely keep my eyes open. I dont know if I am going to make it I got my dryer being dropped off today and why is it they give you a window of 10am and 2pm? that is just to big of a window in my pinion as a customer I want customer service and you would think that they can give you an hour window frame. I mean if something comes up I can see them calling and saying hey running late but that windrow is my whole day.
I guess they figure we have nothing to do all day anyways.
Well that is my day, I hope everyone else has a great day free and unrestricted. comes comes up
I agree...they seem to think we have nothing else to deal with except wait on them.
Sending hugs of comfort and peace to everyone,,,,
(((((((((((((gentle hugs))))))))))))))
WE'RE SISTERS !!!! YEAH !!!!!!!
Oh my gosh, Dixie. All this time, and all you needed was cream. I was given Tiger Balm.....oooohhhh weeeeee aaaaaahh. My head smelt like Vicks. Keep us posted.
Well, atleast they do care, even if I am poking fun at them. It could be the other way around. Hugs to the people who think about us enough to try for us. Smile and thank them. (and grit your teeth behind the smile when they go too far)

Came home...ate a little fruit, threw up, went to bed without Trazadone for fear of a repeat performance. I started twitching and tossing around and finally had to take my sleepy stuff.
Anyway...it wasn't the best night of sleep ever, but then I didn't open my eyes until around 6:15! Everyone is so used to hearing from me earlier that one friend said he was about to call the National Guard!
I did my Mom's hair, colored my Sister's hair...all while my neck and beyond were burning. Hasn't stopped. It's worse, actually so there goes my day. Ah well...could be worse.
Late hugs, but same sincerity!
hugs and peace.
Sweet dreams and Healing hugs to all.
