Hi Franky - thanks for reaching out.* I am doing better........some days are better than others, I'm sure you can relate.* Yes, the pain is in the wound areas (on my face/neck, it has moved south near my gland and jugular vein - which is a particularly sensitve area.* Scale of 1 to 10 I would rate this latest bout an 8, and I have a pretty high tolerance for pain.).* I find it hard to sleep because of the pain.* I also stay up late (3 or 4 in the AM at times)* trying to treat the area, hoping against hope to erradicate the stupid thing.* * Then its up at 7AM to go to work..........(I am a crazy person, I still work 60 hours a week).* It gets better (or seems to) but my patience has reached the limits.* I told my husband that my goal is to get well enough to be able to enjoy the holidays this year (the last 4 stunk!!).* The pressure to get better before then is driving me nuts* *

* * *My girls have been soooo patient but honestly, they miss their mom very much.* They are all pre-teens now, and they want to go shopping, and get nails done, and do all "girly" things that I really don't have the energy to do.* It's "go to work", then "come home and treat this", "sleep a little" and repeat all over again day-in and day-out.* *I really want to have this under control so we can just enjoy each other.* I don't remember what its like to have fun anymore* *
On the other hand, it's been a blessing to be able to read everyone's stories, suggestions, etc on this site.* It gives me hope that I WILL be able to beat this thing, and be the mom and wife that I was 5 years ago.* I have been following the treatment, and it seems to be working (hate to get my hopes up yet).* *In the meantime, the support has meant more to me than I can put into words.* * *
I hope that everyone else is doing well!* You are all in my heart........ every moment, of every day.
