Welcome to the Ultimate Blog Party! I'm so glad you stopped by to see me!
My name is Kristen and I've lived with CIDP (Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy) for the past twelve years. This blog is about my life with CIDP and is meant to bring hope to those who struggle with any type of chronic illness or live with someone who does. I hope you'll join me on this journey...a journey of hope. Leave me a comment. I'd love to hear from you!

I live with two people who have chronic pain. I wish there was something I could do to make you all feel better - I'm that nurturing type. :) Thanks for inviting me to your party. :)
Welcome to the party and thanks for sharing your story.
So very nice to meet you. I am going to bookmark your blog . . . best wishes to you and hope to see you soon!
What a great way to reach others struggling with chronic disease. Thanks for being a great party hostess and sharing your experience. I can only imagine how hard it was to go through this, particularly with a small child at the time of your diagnosis. My prayers are with you.
Thanks for visiting my blog. We do have some of the same interests ... especially our love for the Lord. Come back and see me and I'll do the same.
Thank you for putting your story out there! I think it's amazing that you've turned your own struggle into hope for others. I enjoyed partying with you for a spell.

I have chronic pain... fibromyalgia.
Still hopping from blog to blog... my goal is to post at each blog at least once. Nice to meet you. Happy blogging!
Thanks for your blog. Although it is sad to read, I admire your strength and hope, and I will pray for you.
I have fibromyalgia, and now since last April severe neuropathy too. I am trying to rule out CIDP, but can't be sure yet. I haven't had a spinal tap yet, but I have severe leg muscle weakness, severe inflamation in the legs, constant muscle twitching pain, numbness in the pinkies and, slight paralysis in the right foot (just feels strange) twitching and burning muscles. My neuro suspects it's from a mildly slipped disc pressing on a nerve, but not 100% sure that is the cause. I took an anti-inflamatory pill for the first time, and felt soooo much better today, that's why I am wondering if it could be CIDP. Is there any other way to know if it is motor-sensory neuropathy, or CIDP----besides a spinal tap?
My neuro has a wait and see attitude, but if I have CIDP I would rather not wait if early treatment helps the prognosis. What would you do?
Thanks
Melie
