wow insite... I have it in both legs.. basically really waist down (every where) also left arm. both arms and pectoral areas love handle area, and belly. and an area on my head. if I had any real inside towards helping you cope I don't know. I have 4 kids though and during the school year I am the main transporter. and the guy that has to do the clean up after the storm leves every morning and evening.. it is hard to do . I keep pushing and pushing. until it finally pushes back so hard I can't move. and as I look back that happens more than I care to admit. but as a parent that is where we learn real pain management. the kids always come first. I sympathize with you as I know how hard it is . but I cannot tell you it gets easier or better because I truly do not know . as for my part ?? it hasn't. but the rewards are tremendous at the end of every school year and the kids bring home every thing they had worked for. sports, music, clubs,.. and you can say .. Im glad I had something to do with helping my child achieve their goals and they are happier for it.
