Someone with a big heart suggested site. 70, dealing with OA, DJD, Lyme and more. I used to help others in my career. Soon, I will need help. Trying to stay as independent as possible. Helped spouse outside yesterday, paying for it today. I really don’t think she realizes the discomfort I am in. Still occasionally trying to help/support others when possible. Thank You all

Welcome to this caring, friendly forum Lamarly. You certainly have your fair share of health issues and must be in a lot of pain. Look forward to chatting to you more.

Take care. Xxxx

With thx and hoping you are well the same. Acute pain, well that goes or is controlled, chronic, 😮, that’s another ballgame for me🥶

I have some understanding of seeing someone suffering chronic illness and pain as I’m carer for my husband. He has lung and heart disease plus chronic back problems.

I’m not doing too badly thank goodness and enjoy having family nearby.

Good wishes to you.

Stay safe xxxxx

communicate to family friends of how your feeling

pain level /depression really about anything

if they know and aware of whats going on then most people would understand and want to help a little to ease whats going on x
