Gosh darn it Bruce, you're right! I checked too and not much out there for in person meetings. You might consider a broader support group like one for chronic pain that would draw more members. A search for that located a group that meets monthly on Wednesdays through Jewish Family Services in Dallas (which serves community at large regardless of faith).

Regardless of the cause, we all face similar challenges when dealing with painful conditions. You would likely find folks there who understand and want to help. Otherwise, you might inquire with some of the larger neurology practices or academic hospitals like BCM or UTSW.

I do know for sure that you will find good support here on the forum and many struggling with the same things. We may not share the same locale but we have power in numbers.
