I have been suffering for years, I have constant pain that varies but is always much worse at night, I have tried varies medication including Fentanyl and Morphine. One of my biggest obstacles has been the stigmatisation that surrounds any one including myself with pain. early this year I couldn't take anymore and was at the point of no return. I know and felt that when I telephoned for help Its as if they didn't want to know and in some cases I know I was being laughed at. I got into such a state my wife took over.

It's really great to have you on board!
We have plenty of members who live with chronic pain, who I'm sure will be able to relate to the themes of stigmatisation, hopelessness, and not being taken seriously, that you've touched on in your post.
