Maybe I am the only one and it's my fault that the stress from rsd is affecting my marriage. I just thought I'd ask. I've finally built up the courage to ask without deleting my post. Thanks for listening. Take care.  |
Hello Renee,
You are most certainly not alone and I am sorry you are feeling this way. I'm pretty sure most couples who have any type of chronic illness/condition, will admit that it takes a toll on their relationship at times. I think anything that takes your attention away from what is considered normal daily life whether that be pain, school, work etc., for a significant amount of time will try a relationship.
Even without chronic illness/disease relationships can be trying at times. All relationships take commitment in the best and worst of times.
