Hi. I am brand new to the group and so happy to find all of you. I have been suffering from chronic pain for approximately two years now and have not found anyone that can relate to my condition. I am hoping that by joining this group, I can finally find individuals who understand what it means to be in chronic pain. It is my pleasure to meet all of you. I am so interested in hearing your stories. Thank you.

@annie2 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. We are patients, family members, and caregivers who share our experiences to help support others and offer what has worked [or not!] for us. We are not medical drs and cannot give medical advice.

You have been living with chronic pain for about two years now. If you care to share a bit more detail, I bet others will step in and share how they relate to your same issues! I have chronic pain from fibromyalgia, arthritis of several types, and kidney issues. For me, getting out to walk when possible, really helps, and working on keeping a positive mindset.
