ABOUT ME:

Had pain since before my teens. Full diagnosis in 1983 after going round and round the block. By then married with first child. One child later I had a spinal fusion (1986) and was able to walk again. Next child came along but lost Job due to illness. Managed to get a new job, but didn't like it, took a degree in Physics and Education to become a teacher. Qualified to teach 11 to 18 year olds. Just lost that job this year due to ill health and a bad accident at school that caused be to have long lasting pain in my neck and upper arm to add to the Lumbar fun and games. I now have no income and the school are trying to say that the accident did not take place. I was going to list the parts of my body that I have chronic pain in. But I don't have pain in my Jaw and right forearm (Sometimes). I am waiting for an operation to insert an Intrathecal pump. Oh! I am also taking the school to court if I can.
