    I just thought that maybe pain management would help especially if they are strong pain killers

    I'm so sorry @Ibelive2020 - I absolutely hate being sick; it's horrible. Try this breathing exercise for me. It helps reduce stress & alleviates pain, & is something I use each night to help me sleep.
