    • Open Chronic Pain

      I have been in chronic pain since I was twenty years-old. I have had numerous injuries and accidents that have resulted in five back surgeries and one neck surgery. I have neuropathy and Wegener's Granulomatosis, which also contributes to my pain.

      Hydrocodone Somewhat Helpful
      Lyrica Somewhat Helpful
      Prayer Working / Worked
    • Open ADHD / ADD

      My wife has severe ADD. We work at it one day at a time. When she takes her meds like she is supposed to, things are a little bit better. There has been times when it has affected our marriage horribly. We love each other and keep on plugging along. I'm there for her. There are lots and lots and lots and lots of lists and repeating and the grace of patience helps.

      Treatments

      Concerta Not Working
      It didn't work well at all for my wife.
      Focalin Working / Worked
      It seems to be helping so far.
      Strattera Somewhat Helpful
      Seems to be helpful, but we don't have it all figured out yet. We need to find something to help more.
