Trying to hold on

I am new to this site and it is comforting to know there are others who know what this is about. -endless doctors, meds, sleepless noghts, crying yourself to sleep from pain. I only started to experience this terible disease in May of last year. It has robbed of everything that I used to take for granted - driving, going out with friends,vacations, quality of life. But, I am not a quiter and all of you have given me hope and the strenght to continue. You see, in the midst of all this living hell, I am pursuing my masters degree and let me tell you it is not easy. I want to quit everyday. But the unity, information, support, and caring I have read here, has given me that push to keep fighting forward.- For that, I thank each and everyone of you from the bottom of my heart.
