just tell him how the guy at the grocery store was so happy to help U out

LoL he will become supportive..

just kidding

many people don't support people in pain especially if the pain is

something they cant see if U see my leg missing U assume im in pain yet if I

have

horrible nerve damage that U cant see do U really believe its that bad

those of us that have supportive spouses are truly blessed and the others will

shape up some day hang in there ... anyway's U have come to the right place we

have a great support group here and it doesn't matter whose pain is worse

...pain is pain..Cheryl and I started this group with us 2 in Nov of 2000 many

people have found support here that's what it was for where everyone had a

place and I hope everyone feels that welcome here

today

Hubby not supportive, huh? I say, beat him over the head until he

*understands* pain.

All kidding aside, some people just lack the imagination to really " get "

what chronic pain is like. I used to work with a guy... I got to witness

his epiphany. He'd never had a headache in his entire life (he was about

45), and so he thought people were " making it up " . Then we moved into a

" sick " building, and he started having doozies. He learned a huge lesson in

sympathy, but it took actually experiencing it to understand. And he was a

really smart guy!

So, I think you've come to the right place. Welcome!

: I hope I have found a group that I can get support. Like I said it is

hard to find a group that connects with you.I hope to get to know you and others

better. I hope to learn what helps others with the pain.

only been here for a litle less than a year, and the support and information

that I have gotten already, has been great! And had helped so, so much! Our

condition sounds very much alike, except my sciatic nerve is not affected, but

the nerve down the lateral side is.....I have been told to have told to have

some testing....and then surgery in about 2 weeks. Im trying to figure out

where to go from here.

Well, I cant wait to get to knowyou....AND, I am so sorry that your husband isnt

there for you...Mine is, to a great extent! And also I have 2 daughters, ages 8

and almost 7 ---and they help me so much, (usually cheerfully...he he he ) So I

am trullly blesssssed!

Again, WELCOME!

And I hope to talk to you again soon!!!

I am new to the group.

I am new to the group. My name is from NC. I have had fibro

for 12 years, bulging disc in low back which presses on sciatic nerve.

I also just learned that I have DDD and bone spurs. I am looking for a

group that I can get support from. It is hard in finding a group that

I can feel free in asking questions and others talking to me. I really

need the support cause I don't get it here at home. I am 47 and have a

daughter 18 and married. Husband is not at all supportive.
