I'm so sorry you're feeling so down and frustrated. Most times, percocet's seem to be the only pain reliever that helps take the edge off the pain. So far, I've beeen lucky with my doctor who prescribes it for me, although I find myself rationing them just to make sure I don't run out before my next appointment! I too have grown tired of complaining to my husband. It's not that he doesn't care or that he doesn't believe me, it's just that I'm annoyed with myself when I complain all the time that I find I just don't say much some days. It's so disheartening and frustrating when you have a hard time controlling your symptoms and sometimes you feel that no one understands your pain. I'm glad you're sending this post to all of us and I hope you can seek some comfort in knowing that many have been there and many of us are still there - (im)patiently waiting for a light at the end of the tunnel. Please don't lose hope and try to stay strong.

Keep in touch, Sera.
