I have a question...
I am 34 years old and I have Spina Bifida. I also have PAIN!!!
I never used to...
I don't know if it's age related or from my messed up surgery in 1999.
Do any of you who have SB and are near my age have pain? Back pain,
neck pain, leg pain, etc...
I joke and say that the pain lets me know I'm still alive, but
truthfully, it getting on my nerves! Know what I mean?
ALSO, I take lexapro for depression, and I am ALWAYS tired!!!-
Does anyone know of something else that works as good as lexapro, BUT
does NOT make you TIRED ALL THE TIME!?!? ( I mean, I could sleep an
entire day away! No kidding!...Yeah, your definately not depressed on
lexapro, you're too busy sleeping! :)!)
Thanks for any and all input/help!
