Just thinks give me more medication witch I don't really want to take but have to for the sleep less nights . Sending hugs to you all x

Hi Soul Girl, I am sorry you are in pain so much. You sound very much like me. I find my condition drags me down , as I am in pain 70-80 % of the day & night. I would say the pain is up there with labour/ contractions at its worst and the rest of the time it is like having tooth or ear ache. My Doctor tries to help, but can't seem to find a way to cure this condition. I am new on here, so I don't know what condition you have. I hope you can learn to manage your pain and get plenty of rest.

kind regards

Jane

hi so sorry to hear that your in so much pain but hey join the club i to am in constant pain and have endless sleepless nights really getting me down ,when to think 18 months ago i was feeling great then started having a stabbing,burning tingling and pins and needles in my feet legs arms and fingers also numbness keep dropping things and losing my balance.was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in december and then all this to deal with.i feel helpless as my partner has a cavenous haemangioma of the brainstem which is in-operable so have to care for him but in so much pain i just sit and cry thinking when is this pain ever going to go.

Hey Hun hope your ok , have they said you have small fiber nuropathy with you having diabetes at all . I was tested few wks Bk in the pain clinic and it was fine . But my consultant said to me having so much pain in my feet normally you have diabetes . But most things I have read states it's not always the case . Sorry to hear that about your partner hope he's ok and am here to chat to anytime if you need . It's horrible being in constant pain , hate it when ppl say well you look ok ,,,,,, my reply is live in my shoes then you will understand what pain is . Sending hugs x
