Hi,
I have been having episodic migraines often for around 7 years now and foot and back pain for 2.5. My foot pain has progressed since July. My first diagnosis are neuromas for which I will get surgery. Then I developed burning heel pain in July too, which no one has been able to help me with. My first diagnosis was tarsal tunnel syndrome, but my nerve was measured and it came out negative. My second diagnosis for my heel pain is plantar fasciitis. Mine is chronic. I need surgery for it or special therapies that doctors aren't offering me. All of the doctors stay stuff like 'We don't know what it is' or 'Use paracetamol and put ice on it.' I am really at the end of my rope here-I haven't been able to work since July because my job involves standing all day. I am in pain almost every day and no doctor takes me seriously. I have been to 15 doctors. Every day I am at the doctor's office or calling doctors. I have travelled for 1000s of kms around my country to find a solution to no avail.
at what point does one give up and die? I have a family and a BF, they are depending on me. My BF tells me he cannot live without me (but he told me that in the beginning of my relationship anyway) but he is supportive of my ctb. I would devastate my other family members though. I cost them a lot of money with al my bills because I can barely work.
I would like to live a few years more, but not many more. What would you do? Give up? See another 15 doctors? The heel pain has gotten much worse in these months. Would you ctb over this?
I cannot go on, I am cripple with no future. It is unbearable.
