i hope you had a nice 4th too. do you have children too? im 47 and been married for 28 years. my hubby is my care giver. hes a blessing too. there must be a way to fix this illness for us! my family is certainly in pain for me, its hurt us all.
thanks for being so kind and reaching out to me.

Yes, Lori..I have 2 children..a girl 16 and boy 14..They along with my husband bring me much joy and are attentive to me... also sweet friends...I am exactly your age, actually turned 48 last week...Accupuncture, I did but it did not help..I have had spinal blocks 4/5..did not help.., much medicine tryed and tossed up.. I have a spinal cord stemulator in place but did not help..and now been told I would benefit from the 5 day sleep with Dr. S in Philadelphia..but unable to get funded for that..now much of my time is spent filling out disability forms and finding the love in my heart to share as if I don't I could crack due to the pain..and I forbid that to happen. You are welcome..Hang with us here..We have a wonderful supportive forum family!!

Hugz, Kathy
