book about chronic/acute pain

[Guest guest]

I just finished reading " The War on Pain " by Dr. Fishman, M.D., an

anesthesiologist at University of California . It is a MUST read and is in

paperback. I've read about every book on pain but Dr. Fishman innertwines

treatments, patient stories, and different treatments. He fully explains many

terms. I couldn't put it down. I see a pain management specialist who helps

keep my pain somewhat under control after 13 surgeries. Dr. Fishman explains

how

nerves, NSAIDS, etc. all play a role in our perception of pain. Great book!
