I’m not. Closest is my IBS and a constant fear of being away from a toilet for long enough that it becomes an issue. Had the entire city mapped out for toilets when I had an on-site job. Then one fateful day, they closed a street, the tram had to go around and added 30 mins to the travel time. I saw it turn right instead od going forward and I have never felt such fear in my life since
I told a doctor once that I got a “normal amount of headaches”. He asked me how many that was and I told him 1 or 2 a week, to which he responded “the normal amount is 0”.
Consider the fact that for many in chronic pain they do not realize that many people have none. For example I have two or three headaches a year and it is almost always related to caffeine intake or lack of it.
Man. I wake up with a headache nearly every morning. Almost everyone in my family does (mom’s side, don’t know dad’s side) so I haven’t thought about it.
After about 20 minutes it goes away.
Now that I think about it, it’s probably sinus issues. That’s something else common in my family.
Maybe because we all had coal stoves growing up. Who knows? A doctor maybes :p
I’ve been in the same boat, except that it was after a few months of being on migraine medication. Told my doc I was down to normal amounts of headaches and he said “are you sure? How many?” And then we had the exact same interaction lol
“The normal amount is zero”
“…since when?”
Every single person I’ve even spoken to makes me think that’s a lie.
I don’t know anyone who isn’t in some form of constant pain.
Physically I’m doing pretty good. I have a thing where my hip tightens up sometimes but that’s not constant. It’s the mental health that is a concern.

I was in to see him about migraines.
