Episode 14: Why Won't My Earache Go Away? One Patient's Experience of Trying to Deal with a Rare Chronic Pain Disorder
Send us a text with your thoughts on this episode!
Most of us have experience with earaches, either in our children or sometimes through personal experience. Although the pain is severe, it does resolve in a few days.
What if the pain never went away?
Join Dr Karmy for an interview with a clinic patient who has a very unusual chronic pain condition. In this interview, we discuss how our patient found a path forward both emotionally and medically and what lessons can be learned from her experience.
One of the first resources Savitri tried to help manage her pain was an online course recommended by her physiotherapist called: The Pain Truth
The courses they provide perspectives from pain sufferers with different diagnoses. It's a resource to help move through the helpless cycle chronic pain sufferers feel and helps foster the feeling of "taking charge" of one's life while coming to terms with accepting the new reality.
The program can be accessed with the following link: https://www.thepaintruth.org/

Chronic Pain Chronicles with Dr Karmy - Episode 15: Fibromyalgia - A Basic Approach to Management
Transcript
Also, it is important to discontinue medications that are not working, because otherwise patients with fibromyalgia and chronic pain end up being like little pharmacies with five different tablets that may help, but none of them actually helping. The more medications you take, the more likely you're going to experience interactions between them and side effects.
