Re: Long term affect of poorly treated chronic pain

>Both intractable and chronic pain can be killers. The sooner more

doctors and more lay people figure this out, the better off all of us

will be. The adage " pain won't kill you, " is completely false.

I could not agree with you and Bennie more. Chronic pain, especially

if poorly treated, is nothing less than torture.

I always think of the torture where you are restrained and a new drop of

water hits your forehead over few seconds. It can drive you stark raving mad.

It's no wonder chronic pain can lead to many other diseases. Pain can

kill the body, and/or spirit.
