I felt as if this was the end I just cannot take it anymore last Tuesday after weeks of pain unable to open my mouth to eat or brush my teeth. I went to my primary dr while there my pastor call I told him I was in the dr office he said he wanted to visit with me ( have not been to church in weeks) I called him when I got home soon after he came along with 3 other members of my church and they prayed. On Wednesday morning when I got up went to the bathroom to wash my face I realize that the pain was gone. For the first time in weeks I was able to wash my face brush my teeth and eat b/f without pain.Then I found this group this is a blessing for me because I felt so alone I had no one that really understand what I was going through. I am so happy to be a part of this caring and sharing group that really know what we are going through. Every time I read someone’s story it sound just like mine. This is so good. May the good lord help us all to find a cure very soon
Welcome Marjorie! You have found the right place-- we understand and many of us are right where you are at. When I’m having a hard time or stuff about this dreadful condition doesn’t make sense or I just need someone to remind me that I’m not the only one on the planet suffering with TN this is where I often come. Take care and welcome! You are not alone.
Yes, you are not alone and while none of us wish to be here or have TN, since we do this is the best place for support. I am glad your church is helping. We are all here for you and care.
your story is like many others . it is scary at first . the website is a blessing and bless ben for having the forsight … as you learn more and you start getting your meds worked out . it will become easier. it is hard becouse the people closest to us often do not completely understand it becouse have not exsprienced it . but hopefully this will keep them from trying. it is not the end of the world even though at times it feels like it . peace be with you and warm hugs and well wishes
Thank you Kim, this group is just what we all need as we go through this horrible pain. For the first time in 7 yrs I have some that really understand my pain. Thank you all for sharing knowing that I am not alone(even though I don’t wish this on anyone) is comforting. I really don’t understand why we have to suffer so much, but God knows how much each one of us can take and he will never give us more than we can take. Yes we are very strong people. Hugs and kisses to you too.
Welcome and may the Lord continue to bless you. Prayer is powerful. I have not been to mass in about a year now because I cannot "handle" the crowds. My MVD was 14 months ago and I have some serious complications due to the very poor after care or lake of care from my surgeon. I now have a group of physicians that are on the correct track to fixing me to where I can have a normal life and will be able to return to the things I love and the people I love to be with.
Thanks just keep on trusting and praying. It’s all in the Lords hands. I hope that everything will get better for you soon. Blessings.
