You’re right, there’s a happy medium somewhere with medication, but it’s difficult to find.

How does one deal with chronic pain caused by multiple sclerosis and nerve pain in the cervical neck? Also, after 2 critical surgeries in 2011, I was INDEED made to think of hell and the unlentless pain and suffering FOREVER!!
I, too, am on high doses of pain meds (multiple), but I COULD find more relief if I increased one in particular, which I tried for a month. HOWEVER, I was a zombie and could not even pray; so by grace, I took up my cross and asked the doc to reduce it again.
I don’t think it’s your “maleness” that wants to reduce the meds; we have to be able to commune with our Lord which I’ve proven one cannot do when in a zombie state. We learn obedience by the things we suffer, do we not? I praise God for giving me some pain relief; but am struggling with the “happy (?!) medium” to allow me communion and fellowship with Him. Am anxious to hear how you deal with this issue.
