Hi, i was referred to the pain clinic by rheumatologist and i went onto their seminars of understanding pain and how to try to pace yourself using time etc and then they said that we can book to have physiotherapist appointment if want and they did mention about a course which I wasn’t ready to think about at the time as still trying to adjust to the pains, exhaustion etc. I believe that the course you would have to have a consultation with them to asses if in the right frame of mind to go onto. Not sure what else there was as it was a lot of information being given at the time. So when i go to my physio in August i will ask about any other help again. Not sure if this helps you. But it might vary to location/councils x

Thankyou for replying it’s sounds the same as yrs ago I didn’t get picked yrs ago as pain really bad then but a lot worse now but anything worth a try x

[Peanut585 in reply to Dotpot]

Yes certainly try. I have heard some trying acupuncture too so not sure if that is on offer too? I am waiting for physio appointment in August and will ask what else they offer when I’m there as may be able to pick up leaflets rather then over the phone as i will probably forget when hang up the phone!

It depends on what the pain clinic on your health board area offers. Each clinic offers different things xxx

I wouldn't have a clue after being referred to the pain clinic by my rheumatologist and then the pain clinic cancelling it.
