Living with pain daily - way of life.

Im a 42 yr old mother of 3, living with chronic pain every single day. I was miss diagnosed with Fibromyalgia for almost 8 years. With the current Reports, there’s evidence of some major issues in my spine and I need reconstructive surgery on my feet and knees. I can barely walk, I haven’t slept in a bed in 2 years, i cannot wear shoes or care for myself completely due to my physical restrictions. Some days are better than others but I cannot remember a day without feeling pain. Every visit at the doctor, needing painkillers has been stressful. Being looked at like a junkie and feeling a level of disrespect from the staff in the clinic and pharmacy. I do have many tattoos, i was an artist. This doesn’t mean I follow a reckless lifestyle and that all I want is to get drugs. I have no choice, but to manage my pain with narcotics. They should truly give people who NEED it, a hassle free experience, we deal with enough as it is. I’ve been on narcotics for 10+ years now. My new family physician wants to wean me off. Why, because they are bad for me. Well, they allow me to function and take care of my responsibilities the best I can. Ill be bedridden without that relief.
