Hello Joanne
I’m sorry to hear about your daily chronic pain and how it makes life hopeless and a struggle every day. Suffering to the point since no pills help, tests, er, you name it. Nortriptyline helped mask my gut pain well for 18 years and slowly quit working. I had to finally quit work Labor Day 2021. Figured out I have the rare central mediated abdominal pain syndrome or short chronic abdominal pain. This year has been the worse so far living daily and by hour can chg but 7.5-9.5 daily pain. Ruins your life. Very hard on my wife of 33 years and kids. I’ve missed out on so much. I am willing to talk/listen anytime. Rob. Send me a message and I will give you my email or better cell number. No one can fully understand trying to exist with this pain but the people suffering from it. Please reach out would love to talk to someone. Rob T
