Hi Wakegirl. The question I don't just dread but hate as well is that daily "Hi. How are you?" I work with people who say that every single day. It's part of their greeting. Hi, How are you...as they continue walking along.
If they were serious, they'd stand there and ask that question. I think they think it's being polite.
I dread that question because every day I have pain, not what you have, and I hate responding with "Just fine." But I do. What else am I going to do? Go into a long spin on how I really feel???
People here will understand. This forum is very supportive and caring. Visit the Chronic Pain forum if you haven't. I bet you'll find a lot of support there as well.
Hugs, and wishes for a remission for you.
