Persistent Pain: A Woman's Disease

from Life After Menopause Hosted by Karen O’Connor

Persistent and chronic pain is something that a large number of women live with from a variety of causes: migraines, fibromyalgia (Lady Gaga is a sufferer), cancer, arthritis, or, in my case, pelvic mesh that has gone horribly wrong. Persistent pain is a hidden disease, mostly because the sufferers look okay physically. We've all been told that it's all in our heads and we ought to get over it, and science is now showing that it is in fact, all in our heads, and is caused by a nervous system malfunction. https://middleagedwomensstuff.com/mar-moth/ep-7-ppp-1/ https://www.facebook.com/karenoconnormmmpage
