It's the last day of #PainAwarenessMonth so #LetsTalkAboutPain.
Tell me what your number is on this pain scale.
I'll start: My numbers are 10-13 every single day all month with 💩 hitting the fan in the late afternoon and drilling me through until 'bed time'.
I'll be honest: I have suffered these past five weeks since my flight. Every day I've wondered how much more I can take!
Let's move on to our more
realistic chronic pain scale:
0-2
Really?! I didn't know this even existed.
3-4
My normal every day / lower normal. Can almost function as a normal person and very easy to hide.
5-6
Annoying. Also my normal on the medium day or after a busy day. Can normally continue every day things and can be hidden pretty well.
7-9
Angry. Irritable. Can be my background during high pain days. Often a warning of what is to come and when the mask starts to slip.
Should plan to be home or close to home. Will be around close friends who understand only.
10-12
Nope. Intermittent crying. This is high background pain with multiple spasms / shocks an hour. Will need to go home now and will only be around those closest to me. Probably in bed resting.
13+
No words to describe. Uncontrolled. Inconsolable or silent. Unable to move. Should probably see a doctor but I never do. It will pass!

Other than talking about being outside my home and around other people I'd say this paint scale is pretty accurate.
