As an athletic woman, I have spent my entire life being physically active. I ate properly and was fit and strong. I played golf (13 handicap - top 1% of all female golfers in the country), tennis, cycled, hiked, walked my dog. That all came to a screeching halt when at 47 I got married. Three weeks into our marriage my husband committed domestic violence when he kicked me in my right rear while my back was turned to him. So many things happened when he kicked me that doctors have referred to it as the perfect storm. It gave me a labral tear, lumbar disc herniations, piroformis issues, ishial tuberocity issues, sciatica issues, ligament and tendon issues. It always hurts - alot! It never stops hurting, ever. I can t sit, stand, lie down, walk, have sex without significant pain. The lack of sleep is literally killing me. Physical therapy and pain shots have not worked. I can no longer endure this type of severe pain and loss in my life. We actually had to cancel our honeymoon because I was too injured to go. I just do not want to continue living like this. It breaks my heart to think about leaving my life in this way. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please? I am desperate.
