- arpieMemberYep, agree with @"Beryl C." - It mainly covered people on opioids and at the end, mentioned the use of medicinal Cannabis Oil .... but nothing 'new' was raised. I was hoping there would be a few more professionals lined up, rather than just hearing from people currently on opioids.
Take care, stay safe .... keep moving!! (I've not been doing much since the lockdown 2 weeks+ ago .... missin' my fishin') - Beryl_C_MemberI watched the episode and as Summerhill suggested there wasn't anything new - I attended a two day Pain Management seminar (excellent) about two years ago - very informative. I took a couple of things from this - 1) this is a new reality, how you going to manage? and ....are you prepared for the long haul? 2) Find something in every day that you find satisfying - develop this habit for good mental health.We were also given a very detailed explanation of the drugs available for chronic pain with potential side effects. I found in this seminar that their advice, suggestions etc for chronic pain were identical to those given by BCNA, the Cancer Council and breast care nurses.Back to the TV - a couple of the participants reported on the problems with opioids and the benefit of specific exercises easing their pain.So worth watching however nothing new.
