I have found a way to endure

Hello everyone,

I recently heard about this site from a good friend..... thought I would drop in and add myself to the mix heheh.......

I have been reading some of the posts... sad, but inspiring.

Being a long termer, I guess I have found a way to endure ... there is no wrong or right way to go here...just what brings some peace.

I have over the years lost faith in the medical profession. There are a few that still view it as a dedication and not a (well-paid) occupation...I think heheh

They really only learn what they know of pain from 'us' anyway... trial and error. If I had a buck for every test they have done, every ml of blood every bit of tissue they have taken, blah blah.. well, let's just say , money wouldn't be a problem.



The old 'let's try this' attitude is all to prevalent with most....Gee, it worked for Mr. Smith??? haha sorry, please excuse my glibness...nah, don't, I earned it heheh.

I push my doctors, and I don't let up till I get an answer I understand...they don't like it, but well, too bad. They are pubic servants, and I will get what I pay for.

Sadly, we put our faith in 'them'..they then think they are gods. They are not.



Sorry, I got off track there, hahah that happens. As I said, just popped in to join in the convo...



Catch ya...............Maree

Thanx Lara..........you are the sweetest girl.
Hahaha the warrior... well, I have given up many things to this disease Lara, but, I draw the line at my 'personal power'. I have watched many believe themselves 'less' for thier suffering than Mr. Goodhealth...& expect less because of this belief. But it isn't true, I am as worthy as a healthy person......as are we all.

You are an inspiration to me as well, luv. I think we utilise the term 'friends' extremely well.... and anytime you're ready to hit the road, just give me a yell hahaha

Love to you, always, Lara,
Maree

Hello Maree,

Welcome to the chronic pain forum of Healing Well. We are glad you posted here. I see you have a warrior spirit. That is good. It keeps one going and not giving in. I too have had my share of non-complacent doctors and I always urge others to seek out another doctor when that happens. Don't stay stuck in the rut, I always say.

Well keep posting. We look forward to getting to know you better and hearing your varied thoughts on things!

God bless and gentle hugs,

Lindaloo
