Thank you for responding.. and thank you for your kind response.

I thought that what you experienced is what was happening to me... my self esteem is in the gutter.. always lonely.. I thought that's what it was (began in my mid 30's). When I was about 40, I kinda asked my doc if he could give me a hormone shot or something to stop it. He kinda laughed it off.. said it would go away. It didn't .. just got worse.

I have some really good anti inflammatory pills I save for emergency... it might sound rediculous, but .. just maybe they'll work.

Thank you..
