Stop saying you understand my situation when you obviously, by the remarks you're making don't understand one damn thing about it. And it's not offence it's offense. Just for the other people who you plan to offend.
Yes Jim. Stop. You're very arrogant.
Thank you.
It's ok you didn't offend me.
Yes, just like eventually you will die too and so will I. How condescending of you. Yes we all know you don't think cancer is painful (or I'm sorry not as painful as what you have to go through) and you either die or get treatment and get better
JFCI just wanted to interject here that I think what Sweet Emotion is trying to say is cancer, while it certainly has its own level of immense suffering, is at least acknowledged by others and perhaps then garners some level of support...as opposed to lesser known or understood illnesses that are more likely under constant scrutiny and questioning rather than support. And she got sick at 20, and it sounds like her condition isn't fatal, so perhaps she could live 60 or 70 years in unmanageable intense pain. That's just what I hear her saying.Yes, just like eventually you will die too and so will I. How condescending of you.

I would suggest you think about others and understand that even though you might be in pain other also can own that also. Others are also in pain and torture for years. We all go through different things and feel different levels of pain no matter what disease or malady you might have.
Thank you so much! That is exactly what I am saying and the point I'm trying to make. I'm glad someone understood me. That means a lot. I wasn't trying to be malicious in any way. I'm just saying...cancer has an awareness month when it doesn't even need one. Everyone knows that cancer exists and what it is. My condition has a month but it may as well not because no one talks about it and no one knows what it is. There is hope with cancer. There are treatments. People fight to live with cancer. With CRPS, there is no hope, there are no treatments, and people fight to die. Unless it travels into one of your organs and you die from crps related complications, you will live the rest of your natural life in pain that no one can imagine unless they have crps. I'm sorry but it's not like other pain. They don't help you at the hospital for crps like they do for cancer. They don't make dying less painful. I'm so glad you understand what I'm trying to say because never did I say other people don't suffer and that cancer isn't awful. Of course cancer is awful. But I'd rather have that than CRPS.
What makes you think I am arrogant? I am not. I try to understand your situation, sorry, I have not encountered anything like this. I am not trying to offend you, apologies if I make the impression I do. It is not like that at all.
I'm very sorry you're suffering as well and thank you for understanding what I meant.
