Hey Charlie, Haven't talked to you in a while and I'm so sad and frustrated to see where you still are in your struggle. This has been such a difficult journey with my husband right here at my side...
Man, Charlie I just wish you all the luck in the world. I hope that you are able to get in to see Dr. Horgan ASAP. Thank you for sharing so much of your journey with me, I'm left kind of speechless...
Hi Tori, I felt discomfort off and on for a couple weeks maybe? Your experience sounds like mine in general. Pain eased off then came back then just come and went till it finally went poof! Good for...
