    • Close Chronic Pain

      I have had 11 operations on my right hand and elbow.I now have a plate and 8 screws in my hand and no wrist joint.Of course this stops me from doing things i used to and i have bad depresion now.My main concern is that people dont understand that if i dont take the pain meds i just have so so so much pain,and they think that why not take a tylonal.Its very frustrating and dont they think id rather not take it.Im going nuts with what to do.I tried to stop it but it just hurts more than they know.
