I am not one to make New Year's resolutions. I always want to be a good mom, wife, daughter, sister, granddaughter, aunt, cousin, and friend. I always want to teach my kids to be understanding and compassionate people full of love and hope. I have, however, resolved to not let TN define me. I am going to continue to be the positive person I have always been. I will work with my dr. to control the pain (they have insisted that I call whenever I feel the meds aren't doing their job). I am still going to do all of the things I love even though their is a possibility that it's going to trigger pain. You never know when it will hit, but I'm not going to stop living because of it! I hope you all have a great and pain free New year!
That is a wonderful resolution! Good luck to you!

Great thoughts and very inspiring. I imagine you are just the person to make these all work! I am going to try and copy!!
Thanks Mistee! Thanks, Jackie. You go girl!!
Happy new year to you too! This is a great resolution for the new year. I also refuse to let tn define me. I may have TN but it does not have me. Remember to make small goals (even if its going out to the mail box on a cold windy day). You and everyone here can do this! Best of wishes for you on your resoultion/s. I wish the best in 2013. Have a happy healthy safe and pain free 2013=:•D
lovely to get your comment, i agree..... i have just had my MVD a month ago, and for a month i was pain free, i smiled, i laughed, i felt life was new again, but exactly one month later,my pain came back, i a now on meds again, things are back to normal............... but its no good worrying about it, i did my best, i tried everything, i would do it again.... so it wasn't the outcome i wanted, so this is it???? i still have my beautiful/wonderful/loving husband i couldn't have anyone better, and he will stick by me, what else could i want??
love to everyone, hope 2013 has many good memories for you, we will keep in touch i am sure. until the next time. love anne x

To me it is just one chapter in the book of my life. The pain can be horrible, but it has made me appreciate my pain free/low pain days so much more.
Kari...I wish the best for you also! I hope 2013 is amazing for you!
Anne Morris...I am so sorry you are having pain again. It does help to have an amazing support system. My husband has been so very helpful when the horrible pain has hit...the pain that lasts for days at a time. I am glad you have a wonderful husband. I sincerely hope the meds begin to help some and 2013 can be an awesome year for you!
