Bless your heart ~ I know how awful chronic pain can be. I've been suffering from it for 26 years, and there are times I have trouble just getting up from a chair.
I find it HORRIBLE that your family thinks it's "no big deal!!!" Of COURSE it's a big deal!! The fact that you're in pain is IMPORTANT and it makes me so darn mad that people don't believe you! What makes me even madder is that many times the doctors don't believe us, and think we're just drug seeking.  That couldn't be further from the truth!
I pray that you get the attention that you deserve. It's bad enough that you have MS, but to have chronic pain on top of it is terrible. Did your doctor order any medication for you? I pray that he did, as I know what it is to be in debilitating pain.
Know that you are in my prayers ~ take care and God bless. Hugs, Lee
