I didn't know so many of us are aflicted with this nasty disease. I too have had it most of my adult life(now 81). I had it before it was recognized. Am now on Lyrica and Ultram(a pain med) and it is mostly under control. You just have to roll with it. Coast on bad days and try and catch up after. Important that you keep a positive outlook. Realy tough on your daughter with such a young child. She really needs some outside help. Keep a smile:)
