Hi mecol. I'm like B2chica, I started lurking for a while, then I finally started posting on the med board. Finally I got up the nerve to post here on social. No one really responded to my first post over here, but eventually people got to recognize my name and started chatting. You do have to give it time though. Sometimes it takes a couple of days for a response, but its usually sooner than that.
I know what its like to live with physical pain. I suffer from severe pelvic pain, maybe endometriosis. I have it under control for the time being. But there was a time not too long ago when I had to take codeine three times a day just to be able to work. Then when my doctors couldn't determine what was wrong with me, they decided I was a drug seeker. It was horrible. So I can understand how pain can wreck havic on your life. And from what I've heard, Fibro... (I don't rememeber how to spell it) is one of the most painful ongoing conditions a person can have. And I'm not sure what the MSSP thing is, but I'm guessing it has something to do with multiple sclorosis, which I've read is also extrememly painful. I truly feel for you and hope you are able to find a way to cope with it. Its just not fair that some people have to live with constant pain.
Please write us back and let us know how you are doing. We may not be able to help, but the support can work wonders.
