Tuesday-Newsday #19

Happy 4th of July! A special ‘thank you’ to all those in the military for your service to our country, including two members of my own family who are overseas. Thank you, Mark and Jason!

In my news today are Chronic Pain News, Medication NewsChronic Pain & Military Personnel and Managing Pain when Traveling. I’ve also included information on an RSD/CRPS Study seeking patients

In connection with the 4th of July holiday, I’ve found a great essay called "A Painville Declaration of Independence". It's really worth reading and I'm betting you'll share it with others, too!

Let Me Know: If you’d like me to watch for articles on your pain condition, just drop me a note in the comments section below.

WARNING:  My goal is to provide the most up-to-date news I can, which you can then take to your personal doctor and debate the merits of before you try it. I do not endorse any of the docs, treatments, info, meds, etc., in anything I post nor can I guarantee that they are all effective, especially not for everyone. I always include the citation, source, or website so you know where it came from. As is the case with any health info, ALWAYS get your doctor's opinion first!
