Chronic Pain Member Introductions

I am interested in this condition as my husband was diagnosed with Metastatic Melanoma in October of 2002. He was able to remain NED for 3 years and then it returned in October of 2005 in his left lung. He is currently doing well and in remission. He also has MS and we are thankful that it has not worsened through all the treatments of the cancer. I can certainly share information I have learned throughout this journey. I am also interested in new treatment modalities. I love meeting new people from all walks of life and offer encouragement when needed.

I have anophtalmia (I don´t know if that is the correct word in english, in spanish is anoftalmia, born without an eye).

I´m 27 years old and I still don´t know why I was born with this desease, so I´m hoping that here I can find answers, or at least learn more about it.

I need to talk to people that are going through depression in the family and have some ideas on how to handle our spouses.

My name is James and my wife ran off two yaers ago and i have two kids /6/12/motherinlaw is dieing/cancer/now i must deal with fatherinlaw.My oldest has a deffernt last name and i have had her for 11 yaer.

My husband suffers with this disease.

I HAVE 2 DAUGHTERS 22 & 24. ONE HAS AN EATING DISORDER AND ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION. THE OTHER HAS SEVERE DEPRESSION AND PANIC DISORDER. I AM BESIDE MYSELF AND DONT KNOW IF I AM SUPPOSE TO BE NUTURING OR USE A LITTLE TOUGH LOVE. I AM A SINGLE PARENT AND HAVE NO ONE TO HELP ME. I NEED ADVICE.

I was diagnosed with Lupus in December 2006. Upon researching this disease I now know I have suffered with it since I was a child. Especially since my late teens. I was hopistalized in Oct last year for 5 days with butterfly rash and extreme pain and fevers of 103. They did not diagnose me until they did skin biopsy’s in Dec. I am on Plaquenil. For the last 2 weeks I have had the worst headache. The Dr. perscribed Lortab because it was so bad. That did not even help yesterday. I want to get to know more people with the same problems and learn more about it.

Just looking to chat with others who have Sleep Apnea and share other issues such as back pain, the need for oxygen 24/7, Weight Watchers for weight loss. Even talk about cats, of which I have two.

I was diag. w/both types of SA, and I use a BiPap 16-21pres, w/the stopbreathing failsafe…pretty bad huh? I cant even get a good seal on a full face mask beacause of the high pres… :slight_smile:

Would like to meet new friends that can relate to the stress of everyday life living with RA. I have had RA for 12 years and have started on orencia, taking my 4th treatment on a few weeks. Haven’t seen any positive results yet but still hoping.

Just interested in other peoples symptoms and what they
do about them. How do you make yourself get up every morning and start your day? How do you have the engergy to put one foot in front of the other…

Greetings everyone! I’m always looking for new information on Ledderhose.

Many thanks for establishing this web site!

I have multiple chronic conditions & I am on disability; I worked my entire life & can’t get over feeling guilty for being on SSDI. I have: Addison’s Disease, Myasthenia Gravis, Bipolar Disorder-heavy on the depression,Autoimmmune Hypothyroid, Osteoarthritis, Osteoporosis, Migraine Headaches, Pernicious Anemia, Chronic hip-low back-shoulder & neck pain & high blood pressure & cholesterol.
I am 48 & have lived with many of these conditions for years; the Addison’s was diagnosed a year ago though the Dr’s think I had it longer but were missing because of the Myasthenia Gravis. It took me almost dying last summer to get the right diagnosis.It seem like I can’t find enough info
on the Addison’s.I’d like to connect with other people who may have Addison’s or Myasthenia Gravis or Bipolar or Chronic Pain. Also people suffering from multiple conditions,
such as I am.

I’m a 37 year old make with Complex Sleep apnea in addition to Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis and Chronic Pain Syndrome.
