I had already done s battery replacement. Before it was removed I had a tremendous amount of pain in the battery site. It's so much better now! I'm on a better pain management plan. I realize that the battery was just a diversion. I now use other things like music, gardening, playing with my 9-year-old grandson, and my little toy poodle as diversions. I also take a edible everyday. All of those things bring me above the pain. Trying to get the pain quieter than the things you love and enjoy has been a real eye opener. I guess that's what cognitive therapy is. I just taught myself.
