The secrets of pain: My Truth.

Everything echoes in the night as pain reverberates within me.

Muscles twitch and spark like lightening striking jumping beans in a shallow puddle.

Muscles crawl under the skin like foraging ants.

Spasms clench, grasp and tether me like a tangled knot of sinued threads of old weathered rope.

Head fizzes like a bath bomb dropped into a couldron of confusion.

Memory loss taunts me like cruel playground games.

Joints of over tightened threads unwilling to budge.

Numb legs that resemble a million nettle stings.

Hands that reach with uncoordinated purpose.

Depression imbeded in me like a burnt stain.

Searching aimlessly for the simplest of words through a vast open moorland of fog.

A ceased engine thats been stood in a disregarded graveyard of the mechanical dead.

Not meamt to sound pitiful, I just wanted to offer another insight into the secrets of pain!

Dx can be long journey 4 us! Mine was 4 years on initial issues of Ehler Danlos & Fibromyalgia. Then car accident caused whiplash & traumatic brain injury that wasn't recognized by my docs. Yet I kept telling them I had concussion. 2 years out & seeing Neuro who thinks I'm having brain seizures.

Still in Dx mode....

Be YOUR own best advocate is my best advice.
