Publisher's Synopsis
Chronic pain often debilitates and crushes the patient's spirit. Sufferers go from doctor to doctor and from drug to drug, seeking "magical prescriptions", often to no effect. Some seek surgery, which may make them worse. Written for those who suffer from the burden of chronic pain, and for their families and friends, this book sets out to show how the cycle of pain and depair can be broken. After long research at a pain-management centre, the authors aim to help victims to take charge again, to fight back and achieve things which they never thought possible.
