Have just read these very sad posts and my heart goes out to all who suffer chronic pain. I have constant back, hip and shoulder pain and was diagnosed with possible fibromyalgia many years ago. Nightitime is especially bad so I have an idea of what you are going through. Like you, I can't bear to think that I will suffer this for the rest of my life but unless a miracle comes along to dissolve my arthritis then that's what's it's gonna be. Love and hugs to all.
