Arlene,
Hope you and Dan are both feeling better. A couple of years ago I was just coming out of a four month seige when I got a call that my hubby had had a stroke in Venezuela. When I got there I hardly recognized him and he didn't know me. I fought with Ins. companies, doctors, rehab people, social security and anyone else who got in my way to get him help.
During this time I became chronic, but I took DHE-45 and Cafagot and kept going for months and months. Then when he got better I got down completely. He became abusive (caused from the stroke - I think) and finally a month or so ago he filed for divorce. Go figure! You never know why God puts this on you, but my mom always said He doesn't put anything on you that you can't carry.
Hang in there. You're not alone. We're all here for support. Check in anytime you're feeling down and someone will be here to cheer you up. Some of the posts I've read from others makes me feel like I really don't have it so bad after all.
Hugs BD
