I sustained a work-related injury to my back in 2006, which has caused me more problems than you can imagine. I was always in great until this injury occurred. I gone undergone numerous injections to my back and physical therapy which has done seem to help me. I have used every pain medication you can imagine. I have been diagnosed with neuropathy chronic back pain, migraines anxiety, and depression.

Each day it has been a struggle, because I’m always in pain. I began to loose control of my bladder, abnormal sensations in my legs, intercourse is uncompfortable, extreme fatigue, and weakness of my legs. After talking with my therapist and psychiatrist I have come to the realization this is a part of my life whether I like it or not. I am a very spiritual and that has been my way of coping with my health conditions. It torture everyday and all I can do is utilize the techniques I have learned from various physicians.

I would like to share this quote with you that I got from my therapist, “When neurotics come to youfor help; they seldom seek to be healed, for healing is painful. What they really want is to be made comfortable in their neuroses. Or, best of all,they yearn for a miracle that will heal them painlessly. The old man dearly loved after-dinner pipe. One night his wife smelled something burning and shouted, “For heaven’s sake, Pa! You’ve set your whiskers on fire.”I know it,” answered the old man angrily. “Can’t you see I’m praying for rain?” I pray that each person with neuropathy finds a way of handling this condition and strive to obtain a miracle. God bless you!
