Agreed. Before I found medication that worked, I basically sat around all day miserable. I was just sitting around in pain, doing nothing. No work, no hobbies, nothing. Because it was too much to handle along with pain that would make me scream if it got too bad. So thank whatever gods you feel like believing in for the pharmaceuticals that made the pain mostly go away.
