Desert File,

The journals you are speaking of are not the one I am talking about my pain

physician requested along with a functional assessment journal.

The American Pain Foundation ,http://www.painfoundation.org/learn, then click on

the Target Chronic Pain Notebook and it will list templates.

In this section, Learn About Your Pain and then Publication, you will learn

about Pain Patient Bill of RIghts, Resources, Resources specifically for

military,veterans, target your pain, other information sheets that help so very

much and current research.

I have been with Chronic Pain Groups and The American Pain Foundation for years.

The American Pain Foundation has done and ex tremendous job in the area of

legislature and does a Pain Community Mail-out. Every organization meets a need

of some kind.

The Target Pain header will list separate sections and is truly a good tool. If

you click on the Target Pain Section, it will lead you to the pain notebook, and

other pages that has descriptors.

Target Chronic Pain Notebook : I put mine in a three ring binder and printed

more when I needed them and other information.

The Pain Notebook is an easy-to-use tool to help you maintain a record of your

pain and communicate your experiences. It's an extremely useful tool when

discussing levels of pain, response to treatment and improvements in functioning

and side effects.
