Episode 21: Not all pain is equal (but all pain is real)
IN today's episode, I am reminded of how many chronic pain sufferers do not know what kind of pain they have when they first start off with having pain. I have been participating in a book club of WAY OUT authored by Alan Gordon (through Tell me about your pain community on FB) and through talking to other attendees with chronic pain I was startled by the finding that it takes a long time for humans to find out what kind of pain they have. Finding a provider who can explain pain is #1 to getting better.
I also review a few features of how to distinguish the brain pain (neuroplastic pain) from regular pain (structural pain).
Enjoy :-)
You can find me on facebook under Martina Lenartova or Dr. Martina Ziegenbein and of course as always I welcome your feedback at [email protected] or website www.winningatfibromyalgia.com
