Would that I could get depression and pain in check. I am sad for all here having hard times. We are all here to encourage and help one another as best we know how. I could not even get a script for Baclofen. Is it because I am over 65? I have done everything I know to do with little help from doctors. I would still like to have a better quality of life. Keep thinking positive is the best medicine and currently needing a refill.

@grandmar. I do understand some of your feelings. I also am in constant pain but nothing like yours it sounds. My granddaughter does so much to help me from falling into a deep depression I am sure. God gave me her for a reason and I say that because I had a dream I would be having a baby in my life. It sure happened and I believe it was a message from God. Prayers you start feeling better soon and will one day be pain free. God Bless.
Thank you very much!

My hubby keeps telling me that I always see the negative instead of the positive. He tells me I have so much to be grateful for. He is certainly right about that.
When I went for my 2 week post op check up, I received good news. I was asked why I didn't appear to be happier by the news. I was happy but I was also deep in pain and lack of sleep.
It is so difficult for me to put a smile on my face when all I experience is pain. It seems that the ONLY thing that makes me feel better is when my 7 year old granddaughter comes over and cuddles with me as we watch TV together. Sadly, the cuddling does not last very long before she is ready to play with me.
Now talk about depression. I can't get up to play so she will make accommodations for me.
Next Tuesday I will get my lumbar injection. It usually starts to help within a day or two. With even more luck, it will last at least 8 weeks. Then, my depression will usually lift. I will not be in constant pain and I should be able to sleep. I pray it works!!
