I'm with you-- each day is a horror! My husband dyed from cancer and shortly after this happened to me. I wish I would have just let it go and died but I had no will and a lot of money I wanted to go to my love ones--- the only reason besides facing a horrible death. No sex, major stress while at work and yes it burst open in public. I never go out with friends or do anything. Once I figure a way to find the off switch and the strength, I'm gone and happily so--- this is a very depressing post I know but you tell me--- Do I have a life worth living?
