I cannot relate to all of your pain, I found out about
this board by chance because I am concerned about my
brother who has been getting severe headaches.
Last week I had a severe bladder infection where all I
could do was cry. I couldn't wait until I got to the doctor
for medication. I had stabbing pains and I couldn't take it.
It was a glimpse at what cronic pain is like. I could not
imagine always being in pain. It was about 6 hours before I went to
the doctor and another few hours before the pain went away.
I feel so terrible that people have to live in such pain and
there is nothing to help, no wonder people contemplate suicide.
Just have the hope that soon there will be something to help.
Everyday that goes by is a day closer for the cure.
Keep coming to message boards like these and talk to other people
that have the same problem.
Again I wish you all luck and a pain free life.
Keep the hope.
