@thepainnpchenlow: The 5 best things to say to someone in chronic pain #ChronicPain #PainManagement #PatientAdvocacy #showsupportandlove🙏💜 #whatyoucansay
👏🏾 my current partner tells me to go lay down. Like it bothers them to see me in pain so they’d be better off if I was outta sight. 🥹

One time, I had my doc finally say she believed me, and I just broke down in tears. Years of guilt and shame and disbelief by medical professionals made my self image plummet. Thank you. ♥️

As a PCT in a hospital, when a patient asks for pain meds or says they're in pain I say this: Whats your level of pain right now so I can put a sense of urgency on it. 7? OK, let me go grab your nurse sonwe can get this under control. I then follow up within the hour to make sure they got it and aren't sitting in pain.

It’s automatic for me to apologize when I try to help but can’t, or I have to ask someone to help me with something 😞

"I'm not saying I don't believe you" is something I have heard too many times, not "I believe you"

I feel like a burden if I ask for help. So other than my husband I do things myself…just on MY time 🫤

Only one medical person said it’s not in my head and that was a pain nurse. Just one out of many different doctors and nurses.

The most I feel "unheard " by a large degree is when titraiting down dosages. I already have a dx of anxiety/panic attacks. Titration is torture for me. The " there are comfort meds to help you but you shouldn't be feeling this bad because the titration dose was small". Come sit with me for 4 nights while I am climbing the walls repeating make it stop over and over. Unheard and not validated is the worst.

when I found my current primary care physician...and he believed me right away after we talked and went over my issues and that he was going to try his best to get me to the right people to help figure out what's wrong. I ugly cried in my car after the appointment because I've spent years since I got insurance just trying to be believed. I got dismissed by the first rheumatologist he sent me to, did a follow up with him and told him about the experience I had, instantly went "we're gonna try someone else. there's something wrong, but it's not my expertise so I want to get you with the right people to help properly" yet again ugly cried in my car after the appointment, because he's willing to do what seems like the basic things to help support instead of just going "well specialist didn't see anything nothing wrong"
