Thread: A little bit about me

hey ladies,

my name is mandy, im 28 years old, im engaged to a wonderful man and I have a 9 year old son, ive been having alot of health problems lately and my last family doctor would not help me so I switched doctors and the new doctor I have is amazing she has sent me for many tests to rule out so many things, i went for an MRI back in may and found out I have degenerative disc disease in my neck which means out of the 7 discs in my neck 4 of them are deteriating and im really scared about this, my gramma has it too but she is 65 so its ok if she has it at that age not at my age im too young to be in constant pain 24/7 ive been on so many different medications to ease the pain and nothing works meds work for so long than stop working once my body gets immune to them. Im scheduled for a breast reduction consultation at the end of september as they feel with me being heavy chest having some removed will help with the strain on my neck/shoulders and back which yes i agree but im so scared. I worked full time now my hours are part time as physically i cant handle more than 4hrs at work, i have PTSD as well from a very abusive childhood. Hmm too many others to list...i am hoping to find answers or even others with the type of problems i have too or just someone comforting to talk to

Thanks
