Welcome maryam, very sorry about the diagnoses. When you do your research look closely at ketamine infusions. This may be the way for you to go since you are in the early stages in which this procedure has had good results. Get as many friends and family to help you and move as fast as you can manage.

so sorry ur so miserable. u have joined a great support group! i've been diagn for 15 mos. now. i think there's control - maybe remission - & not complete cure! everyone has great advice...we've all "been there kinda thing"! my prayers r w/u. get a good dr., helpful meds & depend on God!

Maryam71,

Don't take this laying down! If you have not done so already, get aggressive with persuing pain managment; blocks , meds and whatever else you can grab. You are in the golden zone where you at least have a fighting chance to attack this! After a few months, it may be too late to do much other than play catch-up...
