Hi Nancy,
First, I am very, very sorry that you are in a lot of pain. I hope that gets better.
My theory is this -- telling someone about your condition or not telling someone about it, is not going to change the outcome. So, it may help you and your family to be upfront. My husband and adult children know about my condition -- it may help everyone understand why you feel like you do and maybe act like you do. I would like to share something with you that I just heard this morning -- we are only in control of two things in our lives: We can prepare for what may happen in our lives, and how we will respond to something that just occurred.
There are different things that bring people comfort during difficult times; maybe it's religion, meditation, spending time with family/friends, etc, I know that I need to work on taking time to do those things that help me.
I truly hope you feel better,
Cheryl
