Hi, and thanks for accepting me. I have just been diagnosed with Cauda equina syndrome. I live alone having recently lost my husband who I cared for for five years, and now I’m faced with this diagnosis. Not looking forward to what the future may bring.

Hi @Rosie1066, another Rosie! I'm so sorry to hear about your husband. And to have to cope with your health at the same time must be really difficult for you. Have you got any close friends or family nearby you can go to for support?
