Struggling with Chronic Illness: My Journey in 2022

I am completely in the same boat. I’ve had a new very very painful stomach condition (that no one can figure out) since January of last year. I ended up in a coma for three days from not eating. And I have so much pain that really is only controlled by narcotics, but docs won’t prescribe them. I’m so frustrated and I really feel your pain my friend. If you ever need someone to talk to, I’m here and open for chatting. ✊

I really share this feeling. This year has been brutal and overwhelming. Sorry to hear you’re feeling this as well 🫂 Little by little we’ll find things to help manage our symptoms. If you can, ask for help for dealing with responsibilities. It makes a huge difference and frees up time and mental space for you to try to better care for yourself.

I’m so sorry to hear that. As a someone with fibromyalgia and POTS as well, I understand your pain. Hang in there and know that you are absolutely not alone. Do the best you can each day and practice finding balance physically and mentally. Just take it one moment at a time 💕
