Osher Center update: Man how I love that place! I am able to breathe so much easier after walking into their glass doors. The atmosphere and employees are such a Godsend to me and others battling Chronic Pain. I am so very thankful that my doctor suggested this center for me. I learned more today about how negative feelings and thoughts can overtake your brain and cause your pain to multiply. Today (Monday), I was able to cut down on my pain meds! Dont get me wrong, I dont use or abuse my pain management medication and Im really not even taking a high dose of anything when I do need it, but this is the first time in a long time that I have felt like I overcame my pain! I woke up this morning at 5AM (couldnt go back to sleep) with all the odds against me. It was FREEZING cold, drizzling rain AND I had a dull headache. I was able to use the breathing and relaxation techniques I have learned at the center in order to move past the headache with no migraine medication. I was also able to cope today with only one dose of my Tramadol instead of three (my usual). I am beginning to see a very faint light at the end of the tunnel. Please keep the prayers coming, I have felt them and need the continued encouragement and strength. Thank you!
