I have never joined this community because I thought that it meant that someone had to be in pain all the time?
is this so? I have severe shoulder pain from time to time, low grade a lot of the time, and also neck pain most of the time - I cope with it, but would like to learn more about how to cope for my mother as well, as she has severe back pain all the time except when sitting down - and even then she cant sit for too long otherwise it is too bad when she gets up ....
Does this qualify? I know people who have been completely disabled by chronic pain and my mother cant walk very far at all - I can operate but it is low grade most of the time - would very muchlike it to GO :0)
Just wondering really?
