coping with intractable pain

There are also other threads about this specific topic, mostly in the Chronic Pain forum, e.g.:
Dealing with chronic pain... how do you cope?
Pain wearing me down...any ideas what I can do?

There may be more—try the Search facility.

If you haven't yet, I recommend reading The Intractable Pain Patient's Handbook For Survival

Like you, I've been told I'm inoperable, but for a different reason—the arthritis in my spine is too advanced/severe for surgery.

My own methods are pretty much about distraction—one day at a time—whatever it takes.

Coping with Chronic Pain
