Trisha,
You are a strong person and I dn't think anything will keep you down.
That said, if you are having depressive thoughts they need be addressed. There are psychotherapists that deal with patients with chronic conditions.
Have you tried Lyrica? It's been approved by the FDA for Fibro pain and other pain associated with overactive nerve syndromes.
It may be worth a shot.
But so glad that you are getting up and about a bit. You rock!
