As a Chronic Pain suffererer, it is a sad long depressing lonely winding road we have to travel. Upon seeing numerous "specialists" who are only too happy to prescribe us a mountain of drugs, we are told that it is infact our depression causing this pain to "flare" and not the actual pain scource itself. Arrogance is free but the specialists still charge quite alot.
When as you can imagine, an active and athletic person succumbs to an injury leading to chronic pain, this individual would be incredibly depressed as their life, livelihood, lifestyle, image, career, interests and values are wiped away.
There are many many Chronic Pain sufferers out there, not just in Australia but around the world. Please help our cause, help us to try and end our pain by having specialists actually listen to us and carry out meaningful research.
Please Sign this petition, being in pain 24/7 is so depressing and so hard to do we often find ourselfs in a very very dark place. We want HELP, please sign to show your support and understanding,
