I appreciate all of the words of support.

Interesting, I have been on Clonidine forever.

Since I haven't had the opportunity to talk with others that have hit this horrible lottery, I have another question.

I'm curious if others' pain is like mine, not the type of pain, a knife jabbing repeatedly into you or being electrocuted over and over again. Oh, the joy. Instead, I'm interested in how you pain onsets and cycles. I have always described my pain in terms of waves. It is always rolling up and down. It just depends on how high it gets, how long it stays up, and when will it be up again.

I know this has no real point, but I just curious??????
