@leh09, you are right feeling that no one understands the pain you go<br />
through. And there are others who feel the same way. My pain pain can put<br />
me down for days. But I still have to take medication on my good days to<br />
get things done. I was always an active person even with the health<br />
problems I had to live with. There were Dr.s that wouldn't take me<br />
seriously, till my neurologist was doing a spinal tap and asked if I felt<br />
any pain which I did. Back then I had a high tolerance to pain,(which I do<br />
not have no more), which I had learned to live with. He told me because I<br />
was trying to be tough is why the other Dr.s wouldn't take me serious. I<br />
love the Dr. I have now, he knows what I go through and has compassion for<br />
me and his other patients. I hope and pray that you can find a Dr. that<br />
will work with you and your pain. There are some on this post that truly<br />
have severe pain and I don't feel their pain but I understand their pain,<br />
and what they are going through. Stay in touch, I would love to hear from<br />
you and what you go through. Have a blessed day. Salena<br />

Thanks a lot! It is nice to talk to other people who understand what we are doing up at 3 am. Unable to sleep because of the pain.I will be looking forward to meat some more people! Which in my mind means more ideas for new treatment! Thanks, Sharon.

I guess We just need to be thankful we can stand up and take one day at a time!!!!<br />
<br />
(Sometimes that is hard to do!) I have been in chronic pain for around 25 years.( I guess it's been more like 40 years!) I am now 62 yrs. old I have had migraine's since I was 16! <br />
<br />
But If we get my migraines under control I. Won't be in to bad of shape I will always Hav pain. I've been using a fentenol patch 75 mg. and oxyconde. But that is not for my migranes. That is for low back pain. I had a double laminectomy done around age 42. My spine had fallen down and was crunching my spinal cord. The surgeon said I was about 2 months Away from a wheel chair!!! <br />

Hav a good restful sleep. Sharon<br />
