. That's what scares me cus I have it so bad already what's going to happen? It's not just my feet or hands etc. it's every inch. Ive been having blind spots in my vision and blury vision for a while now. Saw the eye doc yesterday she said my optic nerve is thinning and referred me to a specialist. Sooo scared about not being able to see. I know glen says he's improved but he's pretty much the only one...ahh. Trying to hang on.

Hey Canagirl,
I can understand your concern about eye problems having them myself, didn't the Optician give you any idea what is causing this thinning? Glaucoma or something else?
Also, what work do you do? Are you in danger of doing more damage to yourself? How do you cope, physically, with the pain at work?
That's a fair few questions, but I don't want you to miss information or push yourself so far that you suffer more.
Your family are suffering the Classic traumas of a family trying to come to terms with a member with this level of pain. Have you shared this, or any other on-line, support groups with any of them? Carers need support too. Therapy, Counselling, Church Groups… all are available and can help everyone.
Dave.
