To all members of the Chronic Pain group

Several of you have posted about the issue of too many emails. The current system works well for low to moderately active groups, i.e., groups that get 1-20 messages a day or even more. But once a group crosses the threshold of 40+ messages, it is untenable, overwhelming and frustrating. We are developing a solution for the notification system to accommodate those groups on Connect that experience high volume. Find out more about managing your notifications here:

The Chronic Pain group has become a victim of its success. Like us, I'm sure that you're glad that so many people have found this welcoming and informative community to talk and solve issues related to pain and pain management. This introduction thread, "Chronic Pain members - Welcome, please introduce yourself," is a great place to connect with other members and to discover what issues you have in common. Unfortunately, as a community grows, the intro thread can get quite noisy.

We encourage people to start new discussion threads based on specific topics of interest and to connect with the people who share that interest. Or check the list of existing topics and join in: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/pain/

How to start a new discussion topic
1. Go to the Chronic Pain homepage https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/pain/
2. Click START A DISCUSSION.
3. Write a title. Be concise, but describe what you want to talk about.
4. Write your message. (You can even @mention other members you would like to have join the discussion.)
5. CREATE DISCUSSION.
