I am very happy for you.. It does put alot of stress on the spouse.. I wasnt going to tell my hubby the new symptoms i have been having.. Where i am now currently hurting.. Just going to kick him out of drs rooms, and keep it to myself, to minimize his stress. and he got upset with me.. So i explained that i didnt want him to have any added stress, by dealing with mine, and he says that hes my support system. but my personal feelings that i talk about on here is ok he dont need to know.. or the therapy i dont have to share.. but pain he wants involved it.. which is weird, but ok whatever.lol. so share what he wants to know.. and share with us what you need otherwise.. we understand more than he does. that way you get out what u need and you guys are fine.. i am always available if you need a friend!:grouphug:

Grrrrrr

I'd be tempted to tell your husband if he doesn't let you have Neurotalk to destress with, the next site I'd be checking out is eharmony.com !

I understand that our spouses' have difficult lives too....picking up the slack for an out of commission member of a partnership is not easy.....and they should have a way to release their stress too, but they do need to understand that deliberately trying to heap more stress on us is just going to make our pain worse.

I'm happy for you that the two of you were able to talk it out
