Hi Tiffany,
Welcome to The Pain Community. I understand that for some talking about the pain constantly can make life harder to do with. It’s like you start to sink in the depths of depression and it is hard to fight one’s way out. It can be helpful to share with others who do truly understand. We can support each other and share what has helped…[Read more]

Hi,
I am sorry to hear all you have been through. I took care of my in-laws and after my mother in law passed we had to move my father in law in with us. He had a few health issues but nothing major. He did not want to do anything but sit and watch tv and sleep. It got to the point that he could hardly walk and was falling a good bit.

Kelly65,
I am sorry to hear all of this. Living with pain is hard and sometimes those around us don’t understand. Feeling isolated is one of the big things that we live with on our journey of pain.
I will be here for you all that I can if you like.
Gentle hugs

Clementine,
Can you maybe go see a primary care doctor, that can maybe order a group of tests to find the answer that you need. I do hope you are able to find the help that you need.
