What do you use to help with your MS pain?

[Debi Wilson]

Whether, it is a prescription, cannabis or something else, what do you use to help with your MS pain? Does it completely manage the pain?

I have only done mind over matter the once, and that was when in isolationist ward with myself and my then new baby who contracted conjunctivitis…I had a hot-cold fluctuating low-high temperature and used mind over matter to get myself cold, after I was wringing out sweat, and fall back to sleep.

That is amazing, Jackie! That shows just how powerful the mind can be!

Debi, yes, I was in a tiny box room of an isolation ward, mid summer, no window to open, just a tiny jar to open from the bottom, I was trying to get what air I could, even the door was closed and I wasn’t allowed to venture out into the corridor. I just remember laying dead still on top of the bed, with the box rooms walls closing in on me, closing my eyes as I was saying over and over again, ” I am getting colder, I am getting colder, and do you believe, it actually did work, I could sense my body cooling.

I have never even thought about this since, to give it a try for our pain relief, or for anything else our MS throws out at us, but it is a subject I would interested in delving a little further into. Yes I do believe, and think it is possible, we can power ourselves into believing our pain will go away if we focus our mind on it…

It sounds like you were in an awful place, a hospital?

I agree it is worth a try for pain,  I have tried to forget about the pain and hope it all goes away sometimes but it doesn’t.
