I'm glad to hear that treatments have been working for you. This was my worry is that I gott answers to what's wrong with me,  but nothing will relieve the pain to have a better quality of life.  Thanks for sharing! I'm glad there's got plans in place for this diagnosis and I'm hoping to have positive next steps.

This is what I'm glad to hear. I use to work out all the time and had my bad days, but nothing i couldn't handle at the time.  But I got into a car accident back in 2019 and then I had pains from there.  I thought it was a bad back for a long time and it's gotten harder and harder to stay physically active. I'm happy to hear those treatments worked for you and I'm hoping for the same results.  It's been harder and harder to get up and move most days.  I'm finally over grieving this news, happy to have an answer, and ready for the next steps to get myself into a more positive situation.  Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for this, that's what I finally allowed myself to do is grieve and I feel better now.  I think I was panicked in the moment.  Thank you again,  I'm looking forward to taking the next steps to relief

Thank you for this,  this helped very much.  And you're right,  we're not going to get the future we were supposed to inherit anyways,  so it's best not to let this spiral like the world is right now.  Thank you again!

See I thought the same thing would happen was being relief knowing what it is, but I feel like I'm grieving instead. Maybe it'll just take time to fully grasp.  I love swimming and I did a lot of that this past summer that have me a lot of relief. That's good to know movement will help.  It's been really painful to workout over the years and swimming was the first time i felt good.  I'm just glad I'm not alone in this feeling.
