📣 Discussion Topic: What's your top "emotional support" item for high-pain days?

[Skye_MC]

Hi everyone 👋 I hope you all are having an amazing (and hopefully pain-free) week! On those days when a pain flare does come up, what emotional support items help you get through it the most? What would you recommend to other CP patients that helps you?

Hi. My emotional support for high pain days is praying to God and taking aspirin. Since my family doctor became extremely ill and closed her practice recently, it is hard finding a doctor to treat my pain from my chronic pancreatitis even with an EUS report showing a diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis. I’m taking aspirin to try to deal with the pain from chronic pancreatitis. A lot of pain management doctors won’t treat chronic pancreatitis pain long term. A lot of doctors won’t accept chronic pancreatitis patients who have been on pain management for their painful pancreatitis. Who do you all see for the management of you pancreatitis pain long term?😥😥
