We think of pain as a symptom, but there are cases where the nervous system develops feedback loops and pain becomes a terrifying disease in itself. Starting with the story of a girl whose sprained wrist turned into a nightmare, Elliot Krane talks about the complex mystery of chronic pain and reviews the facts we're just learning about how it works and how to treat it.
Talk by Elliot Krane.
I can't deal with the chronic pain I'm in. It's been years and it won't ever go away. I just want to live my life and be happy.
I feel the same way! Keep taking it one breathe at a time! We deserve to have treatment and a cure found. We deserve to live our lives! Keep fighting! We’ve got this 💪🏼
I'm there too. Hence my name. Ever consider pain pump with Prialt? It's my last resort. I wish you luck.
I've been going to therapy with someone who specializes in those with chronic pain. He's been amazing and really adds a new cog in the wheel of getting better (along with meds, PT, etc.).
I just got diagnosed myself. I am starting to understand that the pain management and stress management is crucial.
Try earthing, it's a natural way to relief chronic pain and it's good for almost all health problems.Go DIY a grounding mat, pillow or sheet yourself for home use, no need to buy.
my heart goes out to all those with chronic pain
Thank you, I hope I will make it out of it 🤞
Thank you. 🙏I have EDS and mine will never go away, it makes me feel better knowing that people care.

Too bad that is completely useless. We need logic.

Excruciating pain 24/7 can put you in a pretty vulnerable state of despair. Everything seems amplified, very loud in the brain. Losing sleep creates a volatile mood but baseline depressed. It's a common post hoc ergo propter hoc.

I was in a severe accident in which I was pinned by a semi between my car and the cement barrier on the highway, I broke my pelvis, and several bones including some ribs, and bones in my legs. I had to have both my legs amputated and now deal with blinding pain 24/7. I hardly sleep anymore because the pain won't allow my body to relax. I take several narcotic medications and hope to one day find the right doctor that can help me with my pain. I don't think most people realize how much physical pain some people have to deal with.
MerX-Da-PropheT Count your blessings you get pain relief.
My aunt experienced that after both her leg amputations she couldn’t wear the prosthetic legs because the pain was so bad and trying to fit or walk in them was terrible she eventually died because of it
Ily u keep on fighting ❤️

Narcotics isn't really helpful for legit nerve damage and chronic pain. Antidepressants and cox inhibitors are the best, truthfully. Strong opioids and nerve blocks did nothing for me. I'm deformed and injured and my nerves are scarred and OA/bone disease is all over so I can't be fixed. I can't relax cause things don't work right. I'm experimenting with Antidepressants and Celebrex and anticonvulsant medicine because those seem to actually do something. I hope you find peace.
Dude I'm literally 17 ..and a year ago I got this excruciating back pain ..( I was just exercising ) I thought it'll go away on it's own ..months went by it didn't ..and it's been a year .. I get depressed and regret everything ..the pain just don't go away ..I just want to run , and do many adventurous things but it all feels like a dream . I get jealous of my siblings and friends .But I think I've accepted pain as a part of my life .
I feel like nobody understands this ..but yes I'm not the only one . Whoever have this condition I want to let them know I completely understand you ,and yes we can get through this... A lot more power to you 💗
Have you had any imaging done? Have you had an MRI with contrast?
What about muscle and nerve tests?
These things are a must for you, especially at your age!
Next, take yoga. It's a lifesaver.
Also swimming is a great exercise for bodies full of pain.
Good luck. I hope you'll be doing better soon! Keep me posted, please. ❤️
I'm 19 , l5s1 disc bulge, chronic pain :((
Im so sorry, and you are so young and should not be going through this! Have you had a MRI or any tests done on your spine to see of you have any damage or trapped nerves. Have you been to a chiropractor or physio to who may find you have a problem with a damaged muscle. Please, do not accept your pain and keep fighting on to find out what is causing it. Because you was okay before exercise? And something has happened and needs to be found. Do everything and everything you can, keep calling the doctor, keep on their back! I'm sick of myself and so many others suffering! Someone needs to help us. All the best x

@@AdityaGupta-xq3kr Bless you, chronic pain is literally the worst, especially when it comes to your back I suffer neck and back chronic pain that goes into my arms, wrists and hands, chronic migraines weekly and headache everyday. If you want pain relief, doctors look at you as "drug seeking" when all we want is the pain to be low at level we can deal with. Sending prayers your way my friend 🙏 ❤️ x
Going on 5 years with chronic pain. Living my life one day at a Time. Trying to stay calm and hopeful. All doctors I’ve seen can’t seem to figure this out. Can’t lose hope still pushing through.
Keep that attitude. You have to keep on going. The studies on neuroplasticity have had huge research breakthroughs. Chronic pain coaching has been proven to help as well.
Hey Maribelle. I’m 31 years old from Canada. I hurt my neck and it’s been 3 years. Some days I wanna end it. I just wanna send you strength. You got this.

@@goldmemberr You got this too Damon. Don't give up.
Same for me. I’m just 24 and I had the chronic pain for over 3 years, out of nowhere. Doctors can’t figure out anything, nothing works but all test are good. How are you doing now?
He does not address those people who suffer from daily chronic pain, sometimes for years or decades. People like me who suffer from daily headaches, and no health expert seems to be able to find anything wrong.
This was definitely a great video 👍 However, I think a big part of chronic pain remained unmentioned.
i have the same problem
Me too, I it has gotten to the point where I tried to cut my hand off, I’m only 14.
@@starplatinum4875 That bad?? I don’t know you but I’m really sorry you have to go through this.
Same daily Chronic headache for 1 year now
@@starplatinum4875 probably won’t help much to know this, but just in case it does, I’ll tell you that the phantom-pain is just about as bad I’ve heard
It amazes me that people can recognize that this happens, but yet scrutinize the people that need help with it, and at the absolute worst, refuse to help.
Boggles the mind! Go figure!
Drug seeker!
J/k of course but you know what I am talking about.
@@zevolfearizona2113 All too well, my friend. Thankfully, I have a great doctor. In this day and age, they are a rare find.
The worst thing about chronic pain is not the pain. It’s seeing what it does to everyone who loves you that’s difficult to take.
No, it’s the pain. Day after day for 7 years pain. It runs you down
The sad thing is that this syndrome is present right at the start but few clinicians ask the questions or look for the signs that would identify it. With early treatment the excessive pain can disappear very quickly especially in children. The lack of interest in CRPS was the biggest frustration of my 30 years working in Emergency Departments.
Sounds like you have a pretty positive attitude about your pain. That is so important. I've found, for example, that pain keeps me from wanting to exercise, but doesn't physically stop me. So that is a mental battle, to move the body when it's already hurting. I've learned the art of self discipline, even if I don't always practice it. Best to you.
That does help transform the brain! Pain is in the brain.
Me too. Moving hurts so bad.
Edible weed and jumping rope man. I just get high as a mf and jump rope while watching/listening to podcasts or documentaries in my free time. I can't just sit around because the pain is unbereable. So you could say the pain is making me into a super athlete because I got a resting heart rate of about 40. Still suffering all the time though.

I have a permanent feeding tube, severe neurological and physiological anomalies. I've been in SEVERE chronic pain for over ten years. My entire life has fallen apart, I have no friends, I can't function, I'm frequently neglecting or taking my anger and frustration out on my family.
Chronic pain is soo debilitating and very isolating. Yes it’s lonely Knowone can understanding the despair and the loneliness that comes with it,
I'm so sorry
ahh - no pain, no pain!!! YES - i had a flash of realisation that the severe and chronic pain that i have - is indeed a loop - a pattern gone haywire. Now i have huge hope- HUGE - thank you
Fellas I’m praying for you. I’ve been in chronic pain for a year now life sucks but it’s getting better
Visit Doctor Ani John on UA-cam channel his herbal medication is the best and permanent solution to all kinds of virus disease and STDs contact him now for help he cured mine..
Your explanation of this is spot on! Thank you.
I have back and neck issues, and have had an operation. I’ve had pain for over 20 years now, and in order to stop my body seizing up or getting pain, I get around with crutches. It’s good to hear this talk, as it is clear and to the point.
How has your summer been?
I have chronic pain in my right hand because of linear sclarederma, it formed a tumor in my hand, doctors say it is a very rare case. And I’m only 14, I’ll have this for the rest of my life.
I'm so sorry. My specialty is emergency medicine. Please take my advice, make sure your parents help you find doctors who will listen to you, and work with you to find treatments or medications that are effective FOR YOU! You'll run into doctors who will try to use your age as an excuse to not treat you. Don't ever settle for that.
Nice video ! My mom was suffering from osteoarthritis and she tried PEMF therapy which really improved her quality of life by managing her pain.
Please for the love of god let there be a solution. Hope is the only thing that will keep me and others going at this point
My dear friend recently took his own life following a recent divorce where his wife took his kids because she couldn't take anymore of his Chronic Pain and depression caused by the pain. 😭
I have chronic pain and being undergoing tons of various tests and being told there's nothing wrong with me and there's nothing they can do for me, it's hard not to just give up. I hope the disease modifying drugs he mentioned are a thing of the near future. Symptom modifying drugs (painkillers) have been very ineffective. :\
I’m with u …. Suffering since 2014 ❤
Thank you. Some days I wake up like rigor mortis has set in during the night. One time, I was so frustrated by day after day of it that I cried. I noticed that after I cried, my muscles released and I felt a lot better. So now I actually TRY to get a little cry going and don't let myself get upset about it, I see the crying as a treatment!
I have just recently learned for myself that screaming actually helps !
@@stevetice9360 adrenaline is a helluva drug.
Imma try it
Oh my god it works, thank you
I'm 52 and 5 years into chronic pain. I scream yell and cry every day. It does help relieve my pain. Endorphins work pretty good. I refuse to take pain killers. Too many side effects.
My mother had this same problem; falling on ice, spinning her hand/arm. This makes it infinitely more understandable on how it works- ❤
Bravo! I wish I'd seen this, like, even before it was given. It would have gone a long way to helping me be more accepting of me.
Cannabis hasn’t cured me, but I can finally live my life without pain/ or lessened pain. I have AMPS which is the same pain disorder talked about in this video. If you are diagnosed, I seriously recommend getting a card. I live in NY.

Hi what is amps please
@@eileenlocke7877 amps stands for Amplified musculoskeletal pain syndrome here is a link
www.chop.edu/conditions-diseases/amplified-musculoskeletal-pain-syndrome-amps
I am currently in the process of getting a second opinion as I got that diagnosis as a child.
I have widespread muscle pain or "fibro-myalgia" and wonder what's out there to treat it. Best diet for me is all juice (homemade) but that's hard to take. I've learned to look at pain as "heightened sensation" which helps me tolerate it. I will look into what you mention. Thanks.
Why aren't my doctors doing this? They kept telling me to user over the counter meds and they did nothing. I'm so tired of living or existing like this. I just want some relief.
Try earthing, it's good for almost all health problems including chronic pain. Go DIY a grounding mat, pillow or sheet yourself, no need to buy, it's free and effortless.
It is because doctors have a different mindset. If you want people with similar mindsets it is good to get a coach to help with this process. takecouragecoaching.com/contact-us/
Same here. My docs looked at me like I was crazy
If your pain hasn't been improved by OTC medications, you need to search until you find a doctor who listen to you, treat you with the respect you deserve, and will explore the reasons why you're in pain. Someone who will do the necessary tests and then find the therapy or prescription medication, or medications, that will help you feel better.
@@haileymccarthy7718 That's absolutely not true. It might help with mild pain bit it won't help with severe chronic pain.
As a long term chronic pain patient, I’ve tried the physical therapy he mentioned and much more. Didn’t work. Then I got dependent on opioids that I was told would not be addictive. Long term use has caused numerous other physical problems and even surgery, but I’ve learned to manage them with help. My measure of success is “am I functional.” Can I do what I like to do? Avoid opioids if possible. Try everything else first. But if opioids kelp you be functional, then that’s your choice (if you can find a doctor to write that prescription.). I would like to watch a video by people who whipped chronic pain and knows what it is like dealing with the system. Have not seen any like that. Like a former alcoholic who counsels alcoholics. They understand. They have been there. Only then can you appreciate what we go thru to stay out of pain. This is not an endorsement of opioids by any means but everyone is different and should be treated that way.
I agree. Doctors are afraid they will get you addicted and under prescribe. Thank you big pharma. And PT is another money making scam "here, lay down and bring your knee to you chest, do that ten times a day and eventually your knee will touch your chest" well no sh*t? Or "strengthen your core" I don't know about you but I'm not about to use the ab roller when every muscle in my back is straining to hold my disc in place. It makes zero sense, costs tons of money.
This is the best comment on here. I'm an emergency medicine physician and I couldn't agree more.
@@fcllc4217 I'm also a nurse so I see it all the time. And it's crazy because you get so used to saying that patients are drug seeking, then it happens to you and it's like omg! I'm in pain for real, but still treated like an addict or would be addict. Why do they let you suffer? If someone gets addicted, that's kind of not on you, and that's why it's short term therapy, not long term answer to everything! Ridiculous.
@@bonniebennett6866 ….opioid help is only temporary anyhow. Been there. 15 years now and fentanyl is worthless to me.
You are welcome to reach out to me. I just graduated from Mayo Clinics Chronic pain rehab program. You learn the concepts and ways to deal with things, ill just flat out tell you though. There is no "fix" for most chronic pain. You get just get a better handle on it by doing small improvements daily. The program was 3 weeks long 8 hours a day, and I was scared I wouldnt even be able to do it at first. The first few days were very tough, but it got easier. At the end of all of this, I am not cured or anything, but I honestly can say I feel excited about the new me I can work on. I have to make some modifications in lifestyle, but don't try and get back to the "OLD YOU". That most likely wont happen, you have to be willing to accept and start working on the new you. Pain is processed in the brain, even though you feel it in the back arm neck etc... but there are 16 different areas in the brain that process pain. Its a COMPLEX issue, and we all need psych techniques to help calm the stress response in the brain. I had to hit rock bottom before I even got to this program at Mayo. I spent 100k on different types of treatments and medications etc over 3 years. Finally this program came and I was close to ending it all... please do not hesitate to reach out. I can not advocate for this enough. Chronic pain affects more people than Diabetes, heart disease and cancer ....and gets 1/12th the funding.
I have been feeling like this and been feeling like I'm going crazy. My last two doctors acted like I was imagining it or I was just looking for drugs..... but drugs don't even alleviate my pain.

So tired of pain. Thanks for making and sharing this informative, yet humorous video. "No pain. No pain." Loved him! P.S. "Please hand me that piano." GC
That's the smoothest speech I have ever heard!🙌
I had a labor & breach delivery that went very badly 29 years ago June 22, 1994. Pelvic ring injuries, sacrum, si joints, L4/L5/S1 , muscle tissue damage, ligaments, nerves etc…..no cure or remedy at all for me. I struggle around the clock every day and night of my life. A constant BATTLE just to get it to a tolerable level. I think about ending it every day.
That would free me of the misery, agony for sure….but then I would be dead,…so what good would that be 🤷🏼♀️😪😪
As someone who suffers from chronic pain, 24/7… I can say this is all accurate. I just wish more doctors were like this one - and believed those in pain, and cared.
This doctor actually used thought in his diagnosis and treatment!? Big pharm can't like this.
This information is worth gold
I had pelvic surgery over 18 months ago. Straight after the operation after the spinal wore off i had pain in my groin crease...i now know it's the illioinguinal nerve. Completely ignored by my surgeon and the nurses in Parkside hospital UK when i kept telling them i was in serous pain.
My gp helped and tried multiple neuropathic pain killers. Tried to kms a few times and finally been referred to anesthetics pain clinic. Hope it works, i can't live like this.
Your video gives me hope, thank you.
doctors should watch this as well
I was thinking the same thing

Elliot Krane is doing important work helping patients with nervous system pain but most of the doctors don't know what it is living with Chronic Pain just like I don`t know what it is like giving birth to a baby being a male . I live in London , U.K, and have free medical services , eg the N.H.S but I have been living with Chronic Pain for 40 years . I went to a pain clinic a few times and the specialist said to me " Embrace Your Pain " and I never went to see her again. The words I have written in this article don`t give any good tips but I just wanted to say this to my other people who live with Chronic pain eg nerve , inflammation, spasticity, muscle pain etc . that I know what you are going through .
My leg always hurts. ALWAYS hurts. It's awful, I try not to think about it, I'm on tons of pain killers. Why do anything anymore?
Is it the leg or the back? Do a MR.
I have Chronic pain for 5 years now. I don’t get a day off. It may go down from a 10+ to an 8, but that’s as close as I get to a day off. I am on treatment day 3 of 10 Calmare Therapy treatments. They don’t hurt. It actually feels good. It’s best to be off of Gabapentin because it does interfere with your results. I am reeling from a high dose to nothing. I am now at a 300mg a day from 2700mgs a day. Whew...don’t do it. I had gone off it twice before with no problems, so of course I thought this would be similar. Nope! Check out Calmare Therapy in Gold Canyon, AZ. Doc is very knowledgeable and if Calmare isn’t the right avenue, he has a lot of other”tricks up his sleeve” to help with pain. Great guy! ❤️❤️❤️
@@tootles5555 I’d like to find out docs name! I’m going on 5 years of chronic neck/spine pain that no doc has been able to figure out.
Great talk.
Chronic pain is much of a problem than we think. I sustained a fracture on my tibia and almost after a year of the incident, I still feel a gloomy pain down there and that keeps me from continuing my sport (football). I get a flash back of the incident whenever I’m in the pitch and feel a sensation of the pain. I feel like maybe the fracture isn’t healed yet and I was abt to re-injure it again. I go for X-ray scans from time to time and the doctors keep assuring me that it’s healed, there’s no need😅💔
Excellent talk. :)
great talk!
He appears to be a great doctor. Cares about his work and his patients deeply.
I really need this treatment
I’ve had a chronic headache since 2012 or 2014 (I was okay for 8 months in 2014, but then it came back. It’s low on the pain scale, it’s around a four or five all the time) I was born with hydrocephalus and I’ve had surgeries related to that thinking it would help, (which it did for a bit) but ever since it came back I’ve been trying to figure out what’s going on and who I could go see about it.
As a young man, I use to think the worst thing is to die having not made a difference, how naive I was.
This guy is awesome.
Thank u I’m suffering from chronic pain waiting for pain clinic in uk it’s horrible
I had chronic pain so bad I almost committed suicide. But the work of David Butler and Lorimer Moseley gave me hope and has inspired me to dedicate my clinical career to helping people recover from chronic pain. There is hope!

I would like to recommend the book "The way out" from Alan Gordon. It helped me a lot with my chronic pain.
I'm into 2+ years of chronic pain. This video is good information. Pain has to be managed or it will run the immune system down. Dealing with it is about life balance. Pacing techniques help me manage pain and fatigue without becoming overly dependent on drugs.

@@frewofstew6304 Depends on your condition. Psychologically training yourself to raise you tolerance can only take you so far, beyond that you might need pharmaceutical assistance. Especially when it comes to sleep. That too will depend on where you are and what the rules around drugs are.

Hello I know exactly how you feel, alternative herbal treatment cured me completely from fibromyalgia pain , Doctor Isibor herbal supplements works contact him via UA-cam
what about pain caused by muscle imbalances/ overuse to bad alignment? like chronic muscle spasm and pain? Can chronic pain be caused by poor body compensations and altered biomechanics? especially if the pain is not exaggerated to non painful stimuli ?
I'm on year 25 of chronic pain. I'll take any advice I can get
good philosophy at the end :D
That’s heart breaking what happened to this girls arm beginning with a sprain.
that aproach in attitude towards a sprained wrist you described might be linked to the reason these people develop this symptom. a healing proces isnt something you get for free from your body. focus will help you heal. to put a bandage around it thinking it will be allright if i give it rest is such a wrong aproach. structure is damaged, it needs to heal and buildt new structure that will handle large stresses, so you need to gradually expose it to larger stresses.
I can only hope that they can modify nerve responses in the future. There are too many people like myself that suffer daily.
Where can I go to get treatment ?
Is there some way to 'reset' the nerves? Such as flooding them with excess neurotransmitters? Or possibly depriving the body of the chemicals needed to form them?
Now you're takin' - - that actually makes sense!!
That burning torch pain. I have felt that in my entire body. I have had a kidney stone and I have had gout. I would rather both of them at the same time than that body burning nerve pain.
I've suffered chronic pain since I was in a car accident in college almost 20 years ago. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and also severe neck and back pain from several herniated discs. I need a spinal fusion but I'm afraid it will make it worse.

I wish every M.D., P.A., and RN, would watch this factually informative video.
I'm an RN, with chronic pain. This wasn't eye opening. He's a good teacher for those who do not understand, but believe me, we know this already. The treatment for pain just isn't up to par, under treated, over treated, not treated, not heard, not believed, depressed, suicidal, addicted, it's so so big. But this general physiology lesson isn't new.
I agree. My specialty is emergency medicine. This certainly isn't a panacea and it absolutely is not for everyone with chronic pain. Especially those with severe chronic pain that's treatment resistant.
@@bonniebennett6866 Maybe we need to see philosophers!
his answer is indeed focused on only his sollution towards this problem not showing any other results that have already been produced.
im rather disappointed he didnt once mention a certain macedonian aproach to this problem which has been shown to be effective in some of the cases where patients suffer from these symptoms. i also think drugs are not the perfect sollution to this problem since its phsychologically rooted like he said.

Currently feeling my insides burn from chronic pain 😢 idk what to do anymore 💔
It's just that most drugs have side effects which produce their own serious issues. The body is such a careful balance of chemicals. I am wary because I've seen my mom nearly die from side effects on several drugs. Thanks for your response though.
Death = lack of feeling
Or if you're a theist and you go to heaven just good feeling.
So it's easy to say pain is worse than death. People ask for death when the pain is to high.
Treatment for pain: Whole Foods plant base diet, get 8-10 sleep, regular exercise, fix posture and under active muscles, diaphragm breathing, destress. Check for SIBO for underlying gut issues regardless of symptoms: you’ll see malabsorption, and inflammation. Also do a comprehensive stool test and organic acids test. Cut out wheat because it contributes to inflammation. Check for small fiber neuropathy. Look for the cause and treat the cause most importantly. Lifestyle changes are the most important to get your back life on track. No alcohol, process foods, meats, & dairy because they all cause inflammation and destroy the body.
meats are actually fine, medditerranean diet is what is recommended by Cleveland Clinic and Mayo for pain.
The ending quote lmao
What other options do we have for treating chronic pain then? The symptom treating drugs worked substantially, but they aren't fighting the root cause. This also seems to be an argument about semantics, whatever substance you use to treat chronic pain in the end will be a drug. Unless you are opting for surgery or something akin to that?
And surgery requires more meds to heal. Big pharma. It's all a scam and a sham!
Sorry but i haven't understood at all since i am a hardcore Asian and you spoke it very well enough!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 BUt only to those who are light speed english listeners,i would say they might be from countries like America,Australia,New zealand, Britain, Wales etc lol.... Please bring up a little slower version of speech the next comeback if you can please. 🙏🏻😢 Sorry for me being too slow listener that even Subtitles didnt gave me that clear understanding
hat girl he talks about obviously suffered some type of nerve damage when she sprained her wrist, and it takes a long time for a nerve to heal. I believe not treaing pain properly and those left for long periods of time in pain without relief that it can become chronic. One example of this is phantom pain syndrome, where an arm or leg is removed and the person still feels pain in the removed limb.
I developed chronic pain in my legs a few years ago after having a panic attack from smoking weed. Now everyday I wake up and go to bed with my legs thriving in pain
The same
@@chichiluli have you found anything that helps?
@@MrTrikster420 listening to french music to sooth your nerves, never thought that panic attacks could be the real thing
Even before anxiety attack,u will have a long history of stressors which is the main cause , anxiety attack on weed is short term that might not be the actual cause
@@tousifk3138 I think you’re right on the point that other stressors could be involved rather than just the weed, but the weird is why am I still in pain since that night? Before that night I had no issues with my body or legs, then the next thing you know my legs are is consistent pain. Just confused on why it has never gone away, but I hope eventually it does or there’s something that can help/heal with the problem.
Plus using the marker would hurt.
Yep, chronic pain makes me look forward to eventually passing away.
Sumatriptan works decently for me. I suffer from migraines 3 to 4 a week. Just started trying Nurtec, after my 2nd dose I felt migraine free for 5 days as if I never had them, then the migraine pain came back like out of nowhere. It also makes me sleepy and have nightmares. Thanks for your professional wisdom and insight. I wish there was a machine like a blood pressure machine that could actually tell you just how much pain you are in because sometimes it's indescribable off the charts, ice picking, shattered glass on your brain kind of pain.
For me the best state is to be very hydrated and eat mostly non-starchy vegetables and some fruits. Nuts are good but not too many. Sugar makes me ache more, so do heavy meat meals. Juicing and fasting helps so I try to throw in a few of those days when I'm not in places I have to eat with others.
It is a battle between indulging myself with things that are tasty because I feel so bad, and doing what is best. Living with pain is a burden no one can know who doesn't experience it.
No pain, plenty to gain! :-)
My blood tests are ok why i have fatigue all the time 😢😢😢😢
