People don't know about this condition unless they suffer it themselves. You need to try to educate them...after all no one would expect a cancer patient on chemo to attend therapy session. Phone or Skype is a good idea. Don't give up..counselling for stress reduction is essential. There is no more stressful condition than chronic pain.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639585305009174495.post-85377670166408732442012-02-05T14:21:48.366-08:002012-02-05T14:21:48.366-08:00Nekura, I think you make a very valid point.

If a patient is cancelling their appointment, that is when they need you the most! Be sure to talk to your therapist about this and ask them if there are alternate counseling options (phone, Skype) for those times when you are too sick to attend sessions in person!Julie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08464347473234144019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639585305009174495.post-35271488072369940642012-01-14T22:01:48.032-08:002012-01-14T22:01:48.032-08:00I'm depressed because I have IC.

I can't go to therapy because they get really mad when you cancel your appoint the day you're supposed to go in and will eventually drop you. If I'm in a flare that's what would happen.Nekurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13086210133384287472noreply@blogger.com
