Coping with High Pain Days

What do you do to cope on high pain days? Sometimes I can’t even bend my fingers to hold my phone and end up just laying flat on my back in bed staring at the ceiling.

I know the feeling. I have all over body nerve pain from ancient malfunction. Some days it is tolerable, and I can do my daily tasks and get through it. Other days, I take Neurontin, tramadol, and anti-inflammatories to cope with the pain, But drugs can only do so much. Heat is good, stretching is good, and when that doesn’t work, I go to the doctor. I do what I can with the tools I have, but nobody really understands. It is quite frustrating.

Some days heat works for me. Other days it aggravates the pain. I try to listen to music or an audiobook.
