My options are running out. My lovely GP keeps offering me morphine and I keep turning her down, but it’s starting to get ridiculous. I don’t know how much longer I can realistically cope with pain like this, let alone the mind-numbing lack of mobility.
Obviously the upcoming injection is something to keep hopeful about - but the prospect of 2 more months in agony is less exciting.

hi Ellie
Sorry to hear how badly you are suffering. I’ve posted a reply to you on babyworld but was so moved by your blog that I wanted to post you a comment. I’ve had spd for 4 yrs but as I’m 38 I’m not planning any more pregnancies so am going down the operation route.
If you want to chat, you can email me on julesparks@sky.com or I’m on facebook at http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=600659132.
Take care hun
