Re: Hi..i'm new to the list..too.

Hi Jodi and Meg,

I'm sorry you have to be here, but I'm glad you found this fantastic group of

women. They have given me a wealth of helpful information and compassion, and I

know they will do the same for you... My vv pain is *a lot* less than it was a

couple years ago when I was diagnosed, which is largely due to the information I

have gathered on this list.

That said, I know it can be discouraging to see so many people suffering for so

long when you are anxious to have your pain over with. It helps me to remember

that people who are cured probably go off the list, or at least aren't as

motivated to post anymore, but they do exist. It is important for my own

well-being to hold on to that hope that this ordeal will be all in the past some

day, and to take happiness in the great progress I've already made too.

Does anyone have Heidi's web page url? I've lost all my bookmarks, and it was

such a good one. I recommend it if you haven't been there yet.

Anyway, welcome to you both.

Stacie
