Hi Kathleen.......you are a very tell it like it is.........

[Guest guest]

young lady...thanks for responding to each post. I'm 58(have to wait 7

yrs medicare) and retired. Think there is a maximum amt " lifetime

use " private insurance amount 0f $$. With a special diet, wouldn't

that keep you from going to the hospital with pain, etc? Or does the

average cp patient have pain most of time even when NOT eating? And

everyone STAYS tired no energy " always " with pc? Do you admin meds

yourself or have to have caregiver(spouse) give it thru line? Thanks

a bunch.....how many years have you been diagnosed? How many hospital

visits do you make a year? Bad enough that cp affects lifestyle, but

you also have side effects of drugs used to help you. Wow.....
