    Welcome! I have many of the issues you mentioned as well, and it is often very challenging to live within the limits imposed by them. I also try to focus on the gratitude for what I have rather than what is still a problem. It makes it all more manageable! I hope you will find the answers and support you seek here. Have a good day!

    Hi Karen,

    Welcome to this forum. I am sure you will benefit from sharing and receiving helpful information from this group. I like that you have such a positive attitude. Sometimes I get down and depressed because of my pains and forget to be thankful for being alive. Your positive attitude just inspired me. God bless you!
