Have you tried aqua therapy at all? I don't mean with a therapist but just going to a pool and walking etc.,? This might be something you can do with your daughter as well so no need to worry about child care.. just a thought.
Another thought is that maybe you could reach out to a local church for counseling? For me, the ladies at our local church have been a true blessing!
Have you tried lidoderm patches or any of the medicated compounded creams?
I'm just on the other side of the pass from you.. if you need a friend I'm here
Wishing you the best day possible,
Tessa

Northwest Pain Care is the doctor who told me I have no hope and there is nothing else I can do. He sent me on my way and pretty much told me not to come back. He said there is no reason for him to see me again. I would love to get a membership somewhere with a pool but I don't have the money, but in the summer I have access to a pool and I go swimming a lot. Or just walk in the water etc.. I have Lidoderm patches but I can't figure out where to put them since it is my entire left leg that is in pain. I have tried on my ankle where the pain is worse but it doesn't really help and taking them off is unbearable. I can always use a friend!
