Wendy, I'm so sorry that your system does not allow the ready access to care that we should all have. It seems that these issues are getting worse and worse all over. I hope you can get your med issues sorted out soon. I'm glad that this topic is getting some attention. While we may not be able to solve many of our problems, I think that greater awareness of depression, caregiver and family issues will help us to deal with these issues more effectively. Also important is to understand how huge a component these issues can be, and that they can be a major factor in our pain levels... functioning levels... etc.

Good luck... please keep us posted... all the best,

Mark
