Awww hopefully those pains go soon for you. Its so hard coping with this condition. Do you think your meds have helped at all?

Keep chasing up your neuro appointment because i got a referal in may and nearly a year later I still have got an appointment. Got the doc to ring about it in september and they said id get a letter by end of november but didnt get anything. Back to docs soon to see whats happened it. Seem to live in the health centre these days lol.

Take care

I can totally relate with a post you sent me. With you step dad poking at you and getting you irritated when he knows what is wrong. It makes me disgusted with him because while he's pretty much an asshole to everyone he saves most of it for the family. I've used that you wouldn't poke or make fun of a cancer patient for having cancer analogy many times. Hope it doesn't happen as much. They would probably deny it but I can tell my family has been trying to seperate themselves more and more from me since last June. Oh well, it makes me sad but I'm not going to beg them to stick by me or be supportive if they don't want to be. We'll see.

Hello, Alana.

 

Your statuses really make my heart go out to you.  I hope you feel better, sincerely.  I am glad I clicked on your page.  You have the cutest black kitty!  I had one who looked just like it when I was young.  Aww . . . .wishing you a happy, and more comfortable, New Years.

Alana,
I'm sorry you had a bad night. I hope the pain gets better. But try to have a nice day today and a Happy New Year.

welcome to this site, I hope you are having a good day today, that is one of the ways I have learned to work thru my pain is one hour at a time one day at a time, this web site is filled with support and idea's keep looking keep asking questions.

so glad you finally got a good doctor! it makes a world of a difference when they are willing to listen and help!

Good for you Alana! I am glad you got the referral!!!! : ) bob

Wow, I hate seeing this kind of story repeat itself on here which is lack of support from the ones closest to you and having to turn to strangers who actually understand what it is you're going through. My mother is pretty much the most supportive of me supportive as well as my step dad when stuff is going on but it seems like a burden(which I know I have been over the years, not on purpose of course) most of the time like when I feel really bad I just don't go around because he'll ask stupid questions that just get me spun up more. Like why are you twitching and not talking right. Kind of feels like he's just poking at me, he knows what is wrong. I mean you wouldn't poke at a cancer patient for having cancer. I think the same should be applicable here. I'm new on here but am glad I found it and like everyone else here I'm here for you if you need to talk to someone. I was young when I first got it too(21) so I know many, actually all of the feelings. Keep looking for doctors, you'll find one eventually. It took me 2 years. Just don't give up on trying. I wish you the best. Hopefully relief in some form is in your future. Take care.
