jj,
I hear you and totally understand how you are feeling. Ive been in pain for over 5 years, all because of a broken small toe. that has lead me to become bedridden. good news is that I can get up and about. Not well, and not for long, but I can. I'm getting a pain pump trial in 2 wks. and I'm hoping this will help me get back to doing simple things that I love to do. I know I'm a good person, and I don't know why I got this disease, but I did. sometimes, yes, I do think it would be easier to give up, but I can't. I'm to mean and rotten for that lol..come here and talk to us. at least we all are in the same boat, even if we all have different life jackets on. we are here to support each other.

Gentle Hugs
Mary
