    Hey I'm new to this forum and I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who has CES? and could they give me some advice on how to stay positive in trying to get better!

    I was diagnosed with CES in Jan 2010 and I still haven't got better and I'm only 18.

    Thanks for your time!

    Its condition called cauda equine syndrome. It effects your lower back and the nerves around it! Its a serious neurological condition. Well if you want more detail about it type it into wiki :)

    :) I never heard of it before Boo and when I looked up CES abrieviated I came up with all sorts of english, electronic and environment services....I assumed that was not what you were suffering with;)

    From briefly looking it up it look like recovery is possible but can take time??
    I am not much help to you really, is there a support group for sufferers of this?
    As regards staying positive I have been through the mill healthwise and it is not always easy! however I did do cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT)and it really helped me, maybe you could try that?
