I have nerve damage that causes pain all the time on the right side of my body. I always hate this question because the pain is always there it’s like white noise I can tune it out some what. So what happens it’s really a 4 most of the time but I can tune it out enough to be a 2 but if I have any other pain it jumps up to a 5 or 6.

Age dependent. There will be a point in your life when doctors stop trying to fix issues and start teaching you how to manage them. Louis CK nailed it in a special.

“You could try exercising it.”

“How long do I have to do that for?”

“Oh, you just do that now. You just keep doing that until you, and your shitty ankle, both die.”

Should I have reduced the “out of ten” emotional pain rating? It’s not a fraction…
