Pain Questionnaire
Question:
I’m undertaking a study looking at chronic abdominal pain attributed to adhesions following surgery. Can anyone suggest a validated chronic pain questionnaire that can be mailed to people in the study? I already intend to send the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Thanks Shaun

Chronic pain after abdoninal surgery???? Get real. Chronic intractable pain doesn’t occur in soft tissue. Save your "Questionaire for real problems. Googleymoogley
Response:
But Googley, There’s lots of people in intractable pain from soft tissues, honest!!! Peace, Jane

Mmmm, not only can chronic pain occur in soft tissue, but it can even occur in non-existant tissue(i.e. phantom pain). – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – I’m undertaking a study looking at chronic abdominal pain attributed to adhesions following surgery.

Exactly where did you get your medical degree from?? This is a very common scenario. I happen to be one the people that this has happened to – the pain is severe enough that I am considered disabled by the federal government. I have had to give up my career and many internal organs to this dreadful problem and must take narcotic medication on a daily basis. Don’t think that because YOU haven’t heard of a particular problem, that it does not exist. Terri "Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional"
Response:
Yup, this is why one should try and have pain dealt with as soon as possible; due to the fact that permanent change occurs in central and peripheral neuronal tissue if a pain stimulous is maintained chronically for more than a week. The study primarily deals with an actual mechanical insult to the dorsal ganglion near the central cord but may imply irrevocable changes in the cord or brain itself regardless the nature of the irritant. And, after all, nerves are soft tissue. (Howe J F, Loeser J D, Calvin W H, 1977 Mechano-sensibility of dorsal root ganglia and from focal nerve injuries. Brain Research 116: 139) This citation came from the book which all doctors approach on bended knee, The Textbook of Pain, Wall and Melzack, 4ed, 1994) – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Mmmm, not only can chronic pain occur in soft tissue, but it can even occur in non-existant tissue(i.e. phantom pain).

This is so wrong that I am stunned. Chronic pain does occur in soft tissue, in fact bone is almost insensible and bone related sensation is mostly derived from the periosteal coverings. Chronic pain is a very real problem to many people. It can be devastating in its effects. Ten years experience running a pain clinic allows me to make the above assertions with some confidence.

Response:
Googley, In a word….BOLLUX! Intractable pain *can* and *does* indeed occur in soft tissue. Many on this newsgroup can testify to that. Lily

Who are you? What an ignorant comment. Shell

Bullshit it dosen’t. Than why am I in exruciating pain?
Response:
Someone who does not believe chronic pain can be caused in abdominal soft tissue does not have or has not experienced abdominal adhesions. You know Jefe

Response:
I had hernia surgery and it still hurts about 10 yrs latter. According to several docs I have talked to over the yrs there is nothing wrong. Furtunity this is rarely pain of any great signifigance. Not like my back stuff.

Response:
Cool, thanks Emma. That is my next keyword search. Do you have those citations? Where have yall been these last two miserable years of my life (yup, fourth generation Texan but don’t let that dissuade the barbs because my dream is to meet a nice Canadian or European girl to take me away from all this)? What a great group! .

Response:
I have IBD/UC and I read alot about Chrohns Disease. Yes adhesions can happen after surgery. You can also have endometriosis. You can go to this site and find out more.
Response:
Dude, just who do you think you are? I have only been reading this NG for about 2-3months now. This place is like my second home. I don’t appreciate your comments / statements. This is by far the worst thing I have read yet. UP!!!!!. I apologize to any one else in the NG if I have spoken out of place, Please accept my apology if needed.
