A Pained Life: Let the Words Flow — Pain News Network
A Pained Life: Let the Words Flow — Pain News Network: By Carol Levy, PNN Columnist I ended my last column with my favorite saying: “You don't know what you don't know. And if you don't know what you don't know, you don't know what to ask. Our doctors need to ask.” A couple of days later, I thought about the column and my second appointment with a n

I'm positive that you've been here, sitting limp on your mattress, feet on the floor, your head forward and your chin resting on your chest, and stabilized so that you will not fall. You sit quietly, not knowing when you'll have the energy to "try to read one more pain-related article," especially if it requires more time, energy and likely finances that have been obliterated by your search for relief (44 years now for me), to dig deeper into the article.
ReplyDeleteThere comes a time when that effort is not worth everything it takes to get to the article, much less read it. I am happy for you that you've clearly made progress, but my time on this earth is so valuable, I simply have "enough" only to stay alive for as long as my body will allow, because my last surge of "the search" took more than 15 months, but failed.
I am 67 years old with two ( 2 ) postdoctoral degrees, and two University based fellowships in pain management. However, currently in Kentucky I cannot find a doctor to provide a simple daily regimen of morphine (2 tablets) that allowed me the the very best personal and professional life of anyone I know.
I am ashamed of the inhumanity that has broken, bankrupt, and bedridden me - bedside now but not for long. Words no longer flow so I am done.

I am so very sorry and will pray for your relief.
ReplyDeleteI want to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Aziegbe for bringing so much joy and happiness into my life. For years, I struggled with the emotional and physical challenges of living with herpes. I was feeling hopeless until I reached out to him, sharing my concerns. He reassured me, telling me that it was a minor issue and that he had successfully helped many others in the same situation. At first, I was skeptical, but he sent me a herbal medicine and guided me through the process.
ReplyDeleteI followed his instructions carefully, and after just two weeks, I went for another test. To my amazement, I was confirmed negative—something I had not experienced in four years. It felt like a miracle. For the first time in so long, I was truly free from the condition. Thanks to Dr. Aziegbe, my life has been filled with laughter, peace of mind, and renewed hope.
