To: GMA45 I'm sorry to hear you went through the experience of driving yourself over for help, only to have your pain discounted. Sounds like you have gone through what I'm talking about here. It can get rough - inside, for you. But, if your behavior isn't making life rough for anyone else, then you go to the back of the line. I was okay with being sent to the back of the line. Trouble is - I move up in line a bit, and then I get sent to the back of the line again. Thanks for sharing what you've gone through.
To: CgRgSm Thank you for your affirmations. I take my hat off to you that you manage to keep working despite the pain. It's only lately that I have been having to cope with chronic pain, and mine is actually not severe, at all. My tolerance for discomfort is very low. Even my dentist gives me extra Novocaine. I will admit: I am a complete baby. You are working, tolerating pain, and enduring social isolation. That's really a lot - and, yet, you are able to extend compassion toward me. What amazing people I encounter here at PC.
Hugs to all of you above who struggle, sometimes with not much support.
Again, thanks to everyone for being so kind.
