Thank you so much treehouse for your support. The pain is a combination of things really, abdominal pain from hepatitis, and we have discovered that the pain in my shoulder is a result of a misplaced small bone. It is very painful. I have good support and care here from close friends and a partner and they are aware of my challenges and previous record of addictions.

Thank you for taking the time to reply, I dont feel so isolated now with all your replies, greatly appreciated
