I'm so sorry that you're going through this pain without it even being recognised: I admit, I don't know a lot about the U.S medical system, but I do know that even within the U.K, the approaches towards victims of SPD vary appallingly! I've been so lucky that I live in Wales, meaning I get free prescription medicines, as well as much shorter NHS waiting lists than most places in England. I truly hope you get the induction you deserve (DO NOT LET THEM PUT YOU IN STIRRUPS!) and that things get better for you as soon as possible. Hi Kerrie,

It is almost as if it isn't even recognized here. I cry as I read your blogs. I am 36 weeks pregnant and am praying for a 38 week induction. I hope my pain subsides after delivery as I hope and pray for your pain to cease.

I'm always a bit hesitant at trying new things (although I realise using plants as medicines has been done longer than anything else!) as I have quite a lot of allergies... but thank you for the suggestion, I will look into it!

Have you ever considered consulting with a homeopath? Do you have homeopaths where you live? I am a former nurse and miwife, I discovered homeopathy around 27 years ago, and have seen amazing results for all sorts of conditions- even those that seem "structural" such as yours. I so much desire for you the wonderful health you deserve! rainbow9 Your story has touched me- I am so sorry that you are suffering so much.
