Informing
chronic pain sufferers information necessary for then to get the
medical attention they need to live a better quality of life
As a chronic pain sufferer myself, being diagnosed with a herniated
disc in my lower back, along with bone disc degenerative disease, I
have learned a lot about how chronic pain is treated, or I should say
undertreated. It's a sad fact for a variety of reasons, that chronic
pain goes grossly undertreated. Too many americans are needlessly
suffering in pain. After years and years of of my pain going
undertreated, I have learned a few things that I would like to share.
First of all, theres a stigma associated with patients seeking
treatment for chronic pain. Physicians are hesitant about what kind of
treatment is best. From physical therapy, bio-feedback, muscle
relaxers, steroids, anti-inflammatory, over the counter medications, to
narcotic pain medication. Particular when using narcotic pain
medication, it seems physicians do whats best in the interests for
themselves, not whats in the best interest of the patient. This has
occured due to government regulations, narcotic abuse, diversion,
patient addiction & physicians who just dont understand pain.
Obviously if someone dont have a diagnosis of chronic pain, and other
treatment is better suited, that should be the course of action. But on
the other hand, if every other treatment has been tried, chronic pain
sufferers should have every right to narcotic pain medicine. Before I
found a physician who finally understood my pain, I felt like a drug
addict, I felt like I was disbelieved by the medical community when I
told them I was in pain. Pain sufferers are discriminated against
tremendously. I am dedicated to informing as many as possible that
people are truly suffering in pain needlessly, and dedicated to helping
those who suffer.
