Dear Theresa,
I’m so sorry for the pain you’re going through… It is something that can only be truly understood by those who have gone through it. For me, I’ve had periods so bad I couldn’t talk, eat, shave, be in the wind, work, etc. Last round I had burning in my eyes and sensitivity to light so bad I had to stay in a totally dark room or suffer absolutely excruciating pain. There is hope. It can and does go away, although medical science has no reliable method of making it happen. I’ve been completely pain free for nearly a year now. Never have taken any drugs or done surgery, as I didn’t want to start down that road. There’s two things worth trying if you haven’t already.
- Upper cervical chiropractic
- Eliminating viruses from your body. I’ve come to believe that a viral infection in the nervous system itself is the cause of demylination of the nerves. See this post for more info. Viral infection in the nervous system cause of Trigeminal Neuralgia and MS?
My wife and I have four precious boys as well, and I understand what it’s like to not be able to read them a story, or play with them. Keep courage dear heart, and may God hold you close!!
