Hi Jackie,
I too am a married mother of 2 and suffer clusters but they are not chronic. I can't imagine the pain you are going through. When I get them for 6 weeks it is truly maddening. I don't know what medications you have tried but keep trying. You will find something. We all feel for you here and just knowing that there are people who understand your pain might make it easier to bear. You say your family looks at you disapprovingly and I think we all have come across that. If you need to let out frustrations, feel free to let them out here. We want to listen. I know what its like crawling around the house holding your head crying, screaming and wanting the pain to stop, just make it stop. Please keep fighting. I don't know much about the fibromyalgia. Is it painful for you to get around? Do you suffer from your ha constantly. We are all listening. Hang in there Jackie. We all deserve a better life and maybe we will find it. Hang in there. If you would like to e-mail me I am at jbond@fast.net. I am praying for you and you must fight.
