Welcome to my life with chronic pain
DON'T STRIVE FOR PERFECTION JUST WHAT WORKS FOR YOU

I watched my mother's doctors treat her chronic pain with opioid drugs for 35 years, and watch as she gained 300 pounds, become addicted, and lose all movement.
When my chronic pain started, I promised myself I would not take opioid meds to mask the problem, so I had to find new ways to control my pain. Then after my hysterectomy, I had to control my hot flashes, yup won't take hormones either. I would like to share what I have learned from all the professionals in my life.
