@fd – Wow, your day sounds worse than my headache. At least my head won’t actually explode, unlike your potential gas leak :)

@victoria – Thanks, hopefully some day I will be able to talk about when the pain is gone, but I’ve read many stories of people who’ve had headaches for decades. While I hope the headache some day goes away, it seems less likely every day.

I’m glad you’re feeling better though! Hope to join you some day.

Ouch! What a pain. I didn’t leave any comments to the last post because I couldn’t even get your site to come up yesterday.

Good luck getting all your information back. Glad you are back up and running.

No, PQ stole /my/ idea. Except, being clever, she stole it proactively, i.e. before I’d published the post.

Now /that’s/ what I call sneaky :)

Dang, girl, I hope you feel better soon. Having had chronic pain, I know nothing sucks more. But I can also tell you that once you recover, you really do appreciate life more. When the stock market crashed, and my husband was wondering aloud whether we’re upside down on our mortgage and whether he’ll still have a job in the new year, I was thinking, “Yeah, but I’m not in pain all the time anymore, so it’s all good.” When people deliver bad news, they sometimes joke, “at least we still have our health,” but it’s not a joke — if you have your health, you really have everything you need to be happy. That’s the bright side: you can look forward to being contented with so much less, once your pain is gone. “Lowered expectations” doesn’t sound like much of a prize, maybe because I’m not writing this very well, but my experience of chronic pain really did change me. for the better.
