[quote=Anonymous]I also have chronic pain related to my back as well as traumatic injuries and an illness. I am young and it is rough, especially knowing things tend to get worse with age. There are days I am almost totally crippled and making it to the couch a victory. Other days I am able to run races, cook, and host parties. We are both grateful for what I can do when i can but that it can’t be counted on-we outsource, streamline, and tag team. We do 1-2 days meal prep and also try to outsource. Start with sleep and pain control so hopefully he feels better and more up to getting better via PT. I would tell him to do lots of PT. Everyone I’ve known has had more luck with that and anti-inflammatories than surgery. In some cases surgey made it worse. [/quote]
