Hi Gruvingal,

So sorry you are suffering this much physically and mentally. With my issues, I do understand and share your pains. Hopefully, this MRI, taken while you were suffering, will show cause and you will be given effective treatment.

Please talk - here or in the Real World - when thoughts turn Dark, you know that is not a solution and causes more problems and pain for those left behind. I am always about, and we have the Survivors of Suicide Forum to Post to if you feel the need.

What you do have going for you is your dogs. They are proven pain relievers and mood elevators, as well as being loving bundles of cuddly, furry fun! I miss my Bobby, even miss Sly, who I lost 11 years ago.

Keep us informed regarding your MRI results, condition and treatments, there will always be someone here to listen.

Dave.
