I did great at work with my pain medicine on board. my medicine did not make me sleepy as the pain made me hyper....so my pain meds made me normal, and I loved my job....life was good, until I moved. darn.

I just figured out why my pain is so bad. I have sympathetic maintained pain syndrome. I have all the symptoms. I will probably be diagnosed on the 22nd of may.

I hope you find your balance,as even with bad pain a balance can be found.....then peace takes over
