Hi Gerry,

I was wondering if you should see another Dr. about the pain? I am sure that it is not helping with your anger & depression.

I think we all get angery about what we have lost and wish we could get it back. I too get upset at times when my tongue does not do what I want it to. Some words have changed for me and I try to find other words to use so it sounds better. smile

Not sure if I was any help, but know you are not alone.

take care
Diane
