Hi..... I'm so empowered to have found this place. Although I hate to see that others suffer..I do know now that Im not alone.
Currently I'm dealing with the aftermath and permant damage of Herniated L4/L5 L1, chronic sciatica, degenerative disc desease, spinal stenosis, right leg spastic, muscles contracted, nerve damage to right leg and foot. Also thoratic outlet syndrom and carpal tunnell...phew i think that is it.
So many times in my life over the past 3 years I have had to "grin and bear it" My partner is not that supportive of my conditions. Doesn't understand that it isn't just a "back ache". Doesn't understand that even though I look ok on the outside..I'm on fire, and the pain is hell within. I lost my job due to not being able to perform my duties. That was a HUGE blow to me...I loved what I did..and to become "disabled" really made me feel like a looser. I feel like an 80 year old within a 30' something year old's body. Anyway..enough of that.
thankyou for being here
