Hi Everyone,

Just thought I would share this link with you about pain as a disease in it's own right.

    thanks for the link Eve,

    they are right when they say pain is not being treated properly.....

    but what about the very interesting quote :

    'There is a cultural problem where it's thought that there is a benefit from suffering '
    (I bet they are not the ones with the pain!)
