Hi Pam @mayopam. You are right about retraining the brain. Part of retraining the brain also includes physical exercise. Treating the whole person is vital in chronic pain management. I practice mindfulness and gratitude every day to help me through in addition to exercise. There is an app called Curable that members on Connect find helpful. Have you heard of it?
Hi Pam, I do believe the same that we have to retrain our brains. For awhile I just quit thinking about it after learning my limitations. Only when I thought about it did I really notice it or when I exceeded my limitations. This new issue started and of course I’m back into the pain that keeps you up night and day. Regardless I still enjoy everyday. We all have 2 choices when we wake up. Ask yourself is this going to be a good or will I let it be a bad day……David
