Image by Fr Antunes via Flickr A recent message from my young adult pastor really moved me spiritually, but it also has had an effect on my life outside of my faith in Christ. John Mark reminded us, in the war of life, “if you do not fight, you will not win,” and it struck [...]
Image by Edwin E. Harvey via Flickr Recently my boss at WEGO Health posted a great entry with the main question “how do you respond to unsolicited health advice?” and it struck a chord with me. I posted my own response there but wanted to encourage you to go check it out and join in [...]

Image by ViaMoi via Flickr Working at WEGO Health has given me the opportunity to meet new people and really see where my health interests lie. It’s also recently given me a kick in the pants to start working out again! Shannan recently created a new Fit Group and I jumped right in. She has [...]

Reading about how Christine Miserandino taught her friend about living with lupus reminded me about how I’ve taught people I live with chronic pain. I have used [...]
Image by Getty Images via Daylife Just released: People in chronic pain show higher suicide risk. My response? Duh. A study finally shows what those of us living in chronic pain have known for years; it hurts and we want it to stop. My experience is that many patients in chronic pain often feel as though they [...]
Image via Wikipedia photo credit: Dawn Ashley … continued from yesterday … Chronic pain myth #6: Patients with chronic pain don’t want to get better because they benefit from their pain. Chronic pain fact #6: Most people don’t like to hurt. Research shows that very rarely do people exaggerate their pain levels. The benefits (financial [...]
Image via Wikipedia After yesterday’s post about the late Carla Anna, I felt the need to continue sharing about chronic pain. Chronic pain is diagnosed over time and is normally considered chronic after a patient experiences the discomfort for more than six months. Pain can be diagnosed by neurological exams, nerve tests and diagnostic testing. [...] |
