Good morning @samanthaezu, so nice to hear from you, my friend. My goodness, you are a long way from little ol' Decatur, AL. I am so happy to have you here in Mayo Clinic Connect!
This little group started getting together because of a common life experience that bonds us together like no other. We have all tried many different avenues, medications, diets and exercises, to attempt what seems the impossible....a pain free life.
What works for one, does not necessarily work for another. Yet we share our stories here and learn from each other. I am Mamacita, and I welcome you here!
Is this your first time here or are you a long time regular? I admit I am not a medical practitioner. I have no training in that area. Just a lifetime of chronic pain and experience to encourage and give hope.
I learn so much from the other members here. The general consensus is that we work better as a team, having our physicians aware and part of the entire experience, as we discover what works and what doesn't. I take supplements as well as medication, but it all has to be under the watchful eye of an excellent doctor who is devoted to his patients.
Sorry this is so long. I can't wait to hear more of your experiences and how you are controlling your pain levels. Self care is vitally important. Time for coffee! I hope you will join me soon! Or would that be tea, instead? Have a great day, my friend....namaste.
