    Thanks for sharing Becky & Matt. I think that's the key, communication, love, support & understanding of this awful debilitating condition 💕 xx

    I know how hard it must be after seven years to say and believe that things are getting better. I've been through repeated cycles of severe depression for close to 15 years. You want to protect yourself from hoping too much. I can definitely understand.

    I just came across this video. I can really see the compassion in both of you, just by the way you look at the camera and each other. God blessed you with a great husband to help you through this time... I pray you will be fully healed 🙏

    Thank you for putting yourself out there and helping so many who desperately need to understand what they or their loved one are going through.

    I'm scared I have this... I've had similar symptoms after an epidural. Do you ever get the neck pain and spine pain at the same time? Mine always seem to alternate and I never get them at the same time.

    Hi, I’ve had lower back and sacral pain along with paresthesias in the same area (crawling sensation) for the past few months that is worsening. I have now recently started having spasms in my pelvic area and upper thighs. I had a lumbar MRI which was read as normal. Does anyone have any advice?
