Pediatric anesthesiologist Elliot Krane, chief of the Pediatric Pain Management Service at the Lucille Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford, gave a TED lecture recently about a patient of his who had chronic pain in her wrist and it spread throughout her body. This is a GREAT video for those who do not have chronic pain to get a sense of what it is like to live with it.
“It’s almost as if somebody came into your home and rewired your walls so that the next time you turned on the light switch, the toilet flushed three doors down, or your dishwasher went on or your computer monitor turned off… That’s crazy, but that’s in fact, what happens with chronic pain.”
