Dear Ronda,
Are you experiencing "postherpetic neuralgia?", The pain? And if so what
do you do for it other than take pain pills? Thank you. I am so
helpless seeing her in pain. This is even more difficult than the
cancer itself. With cancer she didn't suffer any pain. But this is
excruciating. Thank you. any advice pls tell me.
Marty
