Hello, most of us have pain, and take many different avenues for relief. I have in the past, called 911!!! The pain was very bad and i had neurological pain (very bad). I now have a morphine pump implant in my stomach and it stops me from screaming. I think this pump has worked for me in more ways than one. I hope i never use anything else. I have had success with the morphine pump and i do not want to chance being without it.

I get relief the minute, it should start...yes, you do have break thru pain with the pump...i do not want to experience, the pain again!! It works for me and gives me a chance to live a near normal life. So, i am happy with the treatment.

Respectfully, mickey

“Managing chronic pain is definitely a personal journey, and what works can vary widely from person to person. For me, a combination of approaches tends to help the most: gentle exercise like stretching or swimming to maintain mobility, mindfulness or meditation to manage the mental toll, and proper rest when needed. Heat therapy, massage, and certain over-the-counter or prescribed medications can also provide relief. I’ve found that keeping a pain journal helps identify triggers and patterns, which makes it easier to adjust daily routines and coping strategies. I’d love to hear what others have found effective—it’s so valuable to share tips and experiences.”
