Re: Difficulty managing pain

Hello: I have definitely noticed a corrolation between stress and increased

pain. I believe there is a connection as we tense up more our bodies tend to

react accordingly. A hot bath, a little deep breathing, a funny movie and

a limit as to what you are willling to do as the eldest may be helpful. My

family is well trained by now and most of the time I don't have to ask they

just jump in and it has taken a long time to get that established. I am

sorry to hear of the losses in your family. You are of no use to anyone if

you cannot take time to take care of you. best wishes.. Alice

Hi all yes stress is a factor in the pain level. I was

told my the first neurologist I saw that the first

thing to do after an injery is to take the things that

cause you stress out of your life. At least he new

that this would play a big part in how well I heald

and how much pain I would suffer after the injury

heald. So there are many Doctors out there that

reconise this as a major roll in living with pain.

Hi Penny,

If I removed all the stress from my life I'd have no

wife, no kids, no car, no house, no food, no clothes

(LOL) I have tethered spinal cord syndrome, and yes,

stress does affect it quite a bit. Thanks for the

tips!
