Wow 12yrs. I have been only dealing with it for 1yr and 8mo and I want to scream. I cant work either. I worked for almost 6yrs in the dementia unit as a nurse aid taking care of others. Are you able to get SS? Mine started after a car accident in my ankle/foot area and has spread upwards all the way to my back. It is so frustrating and depressing. Every ones stories on here make my heart break. I know how it is to feel so lonely and depressed from this. I am hoping once the law suit is done if it ever is that I want to get the ketamine treatment as well. I truly wish they would make it more accessable for us.
