Bd,
That is a great tip. I had not thought about writing down what each number means to me on the pain scale. I am going to do that and then add it to my emergency medical information.
I would like our healthcare providers to;
1) When talking about pain don’t act like we have been visited by alien’s and the idea of having pain is unheard of.
2) When we are talking to the providers they need to look at us, don’t stare off into space or look at your iPad. Look & Listen!
Take care,
