      Chronic pain can and does last, and can do the toughest people in. It's hurtful when people say that, as if it's just mind over matter. In fibromyalgia for example, the disease doesn't kill people, but suicide rates are 10 times the norm. That said, l understand you meant well.

    As a fellow person with a damaged spine due to years of rugger, football and generally moving around all the time I am happy that the worst is behind you. After full disc replacement surgery in my lower spine one of the most fundamental factors that took my mind off the chronic pain was watching Inspector lewis/morse/endeavor family. keep away from meds that contain opiods and the pain will be, initially, part of life, seoncarily, tuned out, and finally phased out. good luck to you and all other fellow chronic pain sufferers. by the by, watching GBN is similar to watching the BBC during the 80s and early 90s (my years in Britain). I am thankful to all the work you and the team put in to keep the Brit culture alive. It is the England i would love to remember. The boarding school years, weekend passes to London, prep and the saturday away rugby games.

      It must be remembered that is most definitely not the case for everyone!
      Otherwise people with a new diagnosis of chronic pain will wonder why they can’t tune it out.
      I have lived with chronic pain syndrome for 18yrs
      There are times that tne mind can transcend, particularly if there is a focused event we need or wish to attend. However, this may well bring payback.
      Please don’t feel you’re not doing a good enough job if it’s hard difficult or feels impossible to tune out.
