I have been with my husband for 23 years. The kids are finally out of the house (for now at least) and I've had this blasted condition for 2 years as well.

I don't know what to tell you. I just don't feel like making love when I'm taking stong pain meds. If I don't take my meds I'm in too much pain to even consider it.

I am very much in love with my husband and I think he is very attractive. He's just wonderful to me and I feel so guilty about everything. I can't do the housework, I can't do the yardwork, I can't do all of the cooking anymore and now I don't want to make love either. I wouldn't blame him if he left me. I don't think there are any magic answers for this.

I would like to say that with patience and understanding this will all go away but I don't think that's necessarily true.

If anyone comes up with anything to help with this part of our new lives, I would be very interested to hear it.

I am in the same situation with you 2 as well. I don't have any desire for sex and it is starting to be a problem with my boyfriend of 14 yrs. I know he loves me so much and would go no where else for sex. I am not sure if it is the arachnoiditis, or my antidepressants,I have changed those to Cymbalta. I think it might be helping that part of my life. Yesterday I was kinda getting H**** which that is a feeling I have not had for a long time. Time will tell. Good luck to you both and if anyone of us has any ideas let me in on it.

Well ladies you can thank your lucky stars about this one. you see, unlike other women you don't have to say "I'm sorry, not tonight darling I have a headache" Or any of those old excuses us guys have heard over the years.

Only kidding girls it's me John. Rofl.
