Chronic Pain? Uh-huh. My entire body is divided between pain and peripheral neuropathy. My Mayo personnel seem to be afraid to give me a diagnosis they would not want for themselves, so they just say it is psychiatric. Which just makes me angry at the lie. It is no wonder the med community is losing respect, just as government, law, education, clergy and police. I would not visit any medical institution if I could get my medicine and the few procedures I need, otherwise.<br><br><br>old karl<br><br><br>

You are here! Maybe just need some support and know you are not alone. I was convinced at one time that a mental health appointment was an option, I mean why not . . .my pain was driving me crazy!? It turned out to be a positive experience as I was able to communicate with practicing physicians much better which then got me some help. Real help, not a cure but help. Have a better day! Listen to some music, read a book, make an appointment . . .action alone will help. Glad you reached out!
