Here is the deal, when I travel I hardly notice the pain at all and the excerise really does wonders for minimising the pain.

Like others I play video games except I focus on a home flight simulator that keeps my mind active and Im busy for up 12 hours during simulated flight in a Boeing 747

Remaining idle and focusing on the pain is a fast way to an early grave so I try my best to avoid that
Yes, I find fighting dragons keeps my mind off the pain, so I play video games every day whenever I'm alone.

I find what you say about excersize doing wonders toward minimising pain interesting! Do you think it's the fitness helping the pain, or the endorphins released when we excersize? I'd love to hear more about how excersize has effected you.

Just this week I purchased a recumbent bike in an effort to increase fitness, as my blood pressure is starting to creep up. If this bike will also help the pain then I'll consider it the best investment I've made in a long time. Getting quite excited now to see if it helps.
