I have stopped talking about my pain unless someone notices my stide is off, more limping etc. I have also been asking the CRNA about doing some trigger point injections or my nerve blocks. He is just not comfortable with "shooting" me it seems. My spouse seems to think if I would just "do more" makes me want to screem at him. The other night he was having muscle spasams in his back and was fussing about it. Told him welcome to my world take your meds and go do something. He slept on the couch that night! He was very suportive with my intial injury (in 1998) but does not recall or care about things that make my pain worse.
