I don't mean anything bad about this in anyway or along those lines or wishing it on anyone else euy, but I did some thinking about what with all I have been through in my life with, I know that I have my condition I have and have accepted the condition I have now, I have to admit it wasn't easy but did, it does have its moments I will say, the good and the bad and the ugly as well, but I thought about this about just now about and thought of my most painful experience as for my health… read more

Cervical spinal stenosis, Had it for 20 years with facet joint injections, ablations, PT, etc. before I found a surgeon who glanced at the mri and said, "that's not going to work, you need surgery-like 20 years ago. It was like having a migraine for 2 decades nonstop. Feeling like someone is trying to rip your eyes out, left side in excruciating pain and atrophying to nothing. I really struggle with doctors now after going through that.

I have had two babies. The pain of childbirth may be comparable to a kidney stone to some. The article had to have been written by a male either way the stone the person passed, I want you to know I am not upset with you at all...
The stone the person passed must have weighed at least 6 lbs. If not more.

I think I had them twice. But when the peeing isn’t good go get some X-rays and thy can. Blast them and turn them to sand.

This isn’t physically pain , but it was more emotional.

Growing up from my adolescence to my mid teens . I felt alone with my Epilepsy. Even with having friends and close families and relatives. I felt that I was the only one with this disorder.. I was starting to feel I was the only one with Epilepsy and it was a rare condition.

It was until I was around the age of 15 or 16 when I started feel depressed. My mom tried to get me help with a Psychologist. It didn’t work too well. My mom found out about the Epilepsy Foundation Support Group around the same time. That was , what helped me out of depression.. I finally found out , that I wasn’t alone with this condition. I learn a lot between my group and the staff

So basically it was emotionally painful growing up with epilepsy.

Losing my daughter almost 25 years ago. She likely felt that one day she'd be obligated to take care of me due to seizures. She's physically fine with a child, I just haven't seen or talked to her since she was 18.
