This is a place for people with chronic pain (and their supporters) to talk about doctors, diseases and illnesses, treatments, medications, pain medications, support, relationships, pharmacists, feelings, experiences or anything in relation to pain, illness or pain management. We are a diverse group agewise and believe that everything you write should be posted as long as you do not curse, use crude language, flame anyone, discuss illegal activity or submit spam.

Our goal is to provide a safe haven of support, friendship and information in a relaxed environment that is more like a supportive, understanding family than a support group.

All who are in pain or who are supportive of people in pain are welcome. This is an OPEN format unless you do not follow the rules. We do not condone the use - or discussion of - illegally obtained narcotics or street drugs including those obtained through illegal offshore internet pharmacies.

We request that all new members read the group's Rules and Guidelines BEFORE posting their first message. This very important document is sent via email along with a letter from the group's owner when you apply for membership. Please look for these important emails and reply as soon as possible so your request can be approved.
