Glad you found it informative @chiarieds
I hope others manage to come across it as it might contain information people weren't aware of...
All the best.

I watched this on catch up yesterday and found it very interesting - it showed that there is a huge need for a different of way of thinking regarding treatment of chronic pain, allowing GPs to have more time to spend with patients and more pain resources to offer/refer patients to. Definitely recommend watching it!

You are absolutely right re the shift in thinking... much needed. It won't be easy for patients or professionals but it needs to happen...
And today my Motability Lifestyle landed on my doormat - where you can find my article on pain management on pg 41, and an article about me on page 51 if you like to put a face to a name!
