Its like wearing clothes pins all over your body and you can never take them off.(have them try it)
The pain can't be seen, just like when you have a headache.
In short its nerve pain.
Pain causes many things like fatigue, muscle spasms, burning,knifes going
In n out over and over. There is no cure. Treatment for it is pain meds.
If they have questions, please write them down and ask us.
You can always have them come here for information.
You can private msg me anytime. Feel free to Friend
Me.

Hang in there!
