Here’s a selection of anonymous comments from patients who’ve attended Know Pain courses over the past few years…
One
—“I am not really thinking about it anymore. It’s livable…in the background, but still there.”
Two
“Understanding why it’s there has really helped. I have noticed that the bad spells are less often, and I’m able to get on with it rather than panic.”
Three
—“I’ve gone back to work for the first time in three years. I have had to ask my family & friends to stop talking about my pain. I just want to get on with life now.”
Four
“My kids filmed me dancing and put it on facebook. My friends left messages saying – ‘Wow! – what about your back pain?’ – I suddenly thought, ‘Oh yeah, I’ve forgot about that’.”
