ive been dealing with it for 12 years now.
somedays are not as bad as others, but i also refuse to take meds 99% of the time.

everyones pain tolerance is not the same though.

I've had a headache that's lasted for 20 months. This is a good site with a lot of support groups and sub forums for all types of ailments. Best of luck...I feel for you.

I don’t really know of any sites for support, but I just want to share, my husband lives with chronic pain. He has degenerative bone disease and his spine is disintegrating and compressing all his nerves. He cannot stand for very long. Even on 300 mgs of morphine a day and oxycodone for breakthrough he still lives with a pain level of about 4-5. It can be debilitating for the whole family.
A number of people have recommended acupuncture and homeopathic remedies. Both could be of some help depending on whether or not you need to take meds for any other reasons.
Take care of yourself best you can and stay as healthy.

Depends on the state laws, sometimes the answer is within the type of pain.
