Can you give some more specifics? Is it a pain attack you're having? Codeine, a heat pad and tea help me loads with those!

I often pray for God to end all this suffering, by either helping me to stabalize, or by allowing me to enter the gates of Heaven where I know my pain will be gone eternally.

Pain is tiring, depressing, and steals away your will to live. I pray for you to find the strength to hang on beside me and many others. My pain and struggles and chronic symptoms that are not helped by anything, this just wears me down too.

I don't want to scare people, but I don't think I would be around anymore if it weren't for the giving, supportive, loving people on this board.

You are not alone, so please keep in touch. And yes, may the good Lord help all of us who struggle with this hiddeous demon and the chronic pain and symptoms that steal our lives away. It is such a waste of life. There is no purpose or reason for us to suffer so.

You do not deserve this pain. None of us deserve this. Please stay with the board and let us fight this long, tiring battle together. Please.

Im going through another tough cycle i call it. My life sucks. Its very hard for me to handle the pain mentally. I have these bouts regularily. Sometimes i feel just fine but it never lasts. I cant work a job and feel embarrassed that im useless. Im sure when people see me feeling ok at times its impossible to understand the situation. I have tried for many years to figure out my problem. Benn to 2 gastro drs. and was told nothing can be done for me, just take stool softeners. What a joke that is. I could be so much more for myself and others if i could fix my problem. I would like to converse with someone that has severe pain as a symtom. I have tried many things to no avail. Its weighing heavily on me mentally and phisically to cope daily. Thanks for listening.

Hi, I'm sorry you are going through this. I also have severe pain a lot. Diet only seems to help me a little. Some days I'm ok, just some bloating and gas and mild pain but I get into bad cycles also. I had a horrible pain cycle this past fall that lasted 8 weeks. I was miserable. I take Miralax for the C but the dr's can't figure out why the pain gets so bad. I have brown burn marks on my belly that never go away from sleeping with the heating almost every night.

When I get into a bad pain cycle, I can't stand even to wear clothes, just the slightest amount of pressure makes it worse. When I get bad like that, not much seems to help. I'll switch from my miralax to Zelnorm because thats supposed to help but it doesn't much. I also take Donnatol, an anti-spasm medication, again, it doesn't help a lot. I'll take Xanax for the anxiety, Vicodin for the pain and Phenegran for the nausea.

It seems though that it just needs to run its course sometimes because not much helps. The dr's have seen me at my worse. The have taken my blood pressure and pulse and seen how high they get from the pain. They've seen how I walk doubled over and get very short of breath. But there doesn't seem to be anything they can do. My dr is very sympathetic and gets frustrated also.

I'm sorry, I guess I don't have any real advice for you but you are not alone. Have you tried a low dose of anti-depressant? I take Zoloft right now but liked Lexapro the best. They seem to at least somewhat keep my mental state from getting too low. They are also shown to help with the IBS symptoms. Hugs.

Thanks for your responce. I dont reep any pleasure knowing that others feel severe pain also. But at least maybe im not crazy like i sometimes think. Its just so hard for me, ( even after all these years ), to comprehend how i can hurt so much one day, and possibly the next day feel good.

I totally understand what you're saying!!!

For me sometimes I'll feel 100% fine and then all of a sudden I'm doubled over in pain. Then I'll have a really bad period where I get discouraged and depressed and then all of a sudden I'm much better again.

It's crazy the havoc our bodies and cause us isn't it???

*HUGS* Hang in there!!
