I posted last year when I was diagnosed with a chronic illness.

I am posting now because after months to find that diagnosis - which almost made me blind - I had additional physical problems a few months later which required surgery to prevent being paralyzed. It was successful but now I may need more surgery.

I have said little about my problems both physical and mental. I have been strong this past year - more than I thought I could be.

Posting because I am having a moment when I realize what I have, how it will affect me and what the future may hold. I know I will deal with it. Today, it is overwhelming to conceive. Today I am ok but there are less ok days ahead. I wonder how I am going to handle it.

I don't have family left and am mostly alone now. Never expected to be in this position. I have been lucky most of my life. I am grateful for that.

Is there a support group here for physical problems?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
