Pain Is A Test? (The Dying Logs Day 51)

Pain very much varies in perception based on its level.

Once it becomes tormenting, either treat it or suffer consequences worse than then opioids.

Orwell said there is nothing to true pain and that’s mostly true.

It weakens rather than strengthens. Lower levels of pain (moderate or lower) can be pushed through without treatment. Probably the right idea.

I’ve been through enough pain to take anything our of it but frustration and an attempt at stoicism I can only hold for so long (though I’m working on that).

The shock is already wearing off and I’m less depressed though I still fear UTI and fistula from my very active Crohns.
