Hi everyone, I have back pain and weakness. It's not been long since my diagnosis but I'm finding it hard to keep the garden tidy. I live on my own and I'm wondering how I'm going to cope , especially as my family are 200 plus miles away and can't just pop round to help me. I haven't yet had a treatment plan and I don't know what the future holds for me. All I know is that from the moment I found out what I had, I lost my future - I can't think about tomorrow anymore. Can anyone who's further down the treatment route than me give me any idea of what lies ahead ? If I could just stop the pain in my back, I'd feel more secure. Thanks, Colin
