My first introduction to the term, “Chronic pain”, came whilst filling time in my GP's waiting room. I saw its a Scottish research into chronic pain or some letters attached to it and, forgive me for not remembering it but, I did take that home and had a potter about on the internet to do a search against chronic pain, and up this site came again.
I looked through the pages, I think there was about six pages or so, but they covered such topics as the pain clinic, pain and depression other subjects on pain and the management of pain, and I did find, well those two that I remember, most interesting.
The one on the pain clinic is a thirteen page précis, I think eleven pages really because the bibliography takes up the last two, but it was an amalgamation of a lot of research that's been done from those accredited books, but its something that is very readable and quickly understandable, and extremely relevant.
I could liken myself to a lot of the symptoms that were being expressed in the research, and I thought, why not. Similarly with the pain and depression page, the Amitriptyline was explained as it should have been explained before that, you know, by my GP, and I would say my chemist as well.
