diabetic neuropathy guy in florida

By Mark Thursday, May 03, 2012

Hello to all, I am a person who suffers like a lot of us with chronic painevery day of my life. My condition has gotten steadily worse in the past few years. In fact i am a second generation diabetic neuropathy patient who watched my father suffer from it and end his life at a earlier age than it should have. he diddnt take very good care of himself. I myself have tried to do the best i can my weight, and diet are good and most of the time my sugar is in a good range. unfortunately the pain in my legs from neuropathy is daily and severe. I have tried all the accepted regiments with none or little help. life is tough but this is hard to handle everyday. I am no longer able to work to provide for my family and in theese tough ecanomic times even part time short hour jobs are allmost impossible to find. Having worked over 40 years and now not even able to mow the lawn makes my days unbearable. But the topper is my family who i supported all theese years just dont understand what i am going through. I am on disability and the money is really a problem, my kids ages 18 and 23 cant handle my disease and my wife of 35 years is just plain cruel.  Just wanted to tell my story so the ones with good support can appreciate what they have.   years is jus

I understand what you are going thru. I have severe pain everyday too with no support system. I've been on disabilty since 2006. I've lost friends and the respect of former co-workers just because I have to take narcotics to even get out of bed. It's hard enough to live with the pain without all the other problems that go it.I'm thankful I get disability,but it not enough to live on. My family doesn't understand. I wish you the best........ScooterSmile

 hi scoter its fine you are a woman actually i could use one that understands what i go through every day, i am preparing to leave here my home for 23 years . my family treats me poorly and i cant take it anymore. I also am on disability also, so where do you live? not in florida im sure, that would be good but nothing good happens to me  lately. but once i get out of here and take control of my life i believe good things will start to happen to me, i sent you an email lets see if you get mine are you on facebook we can hook up that way look for me mark lebofsky, send me a friend request. bye Mark
