Hello Sunshinee

Hi sunshinee welcome to the group. I was diagnosed at birth and have been having painful episodes since I was 6 months old and it's been a very difficult life for me. It's also getting worse as I get older. How old are you if you don't mind me asking? I understand what you mean by trying to keep your shit together. It's always on thing or another. As you get better from one, another starts lol. I hope you are keeping well. Stay strong.
