Chronic Pain

This website is dedicated to the impact chronic pain has on the human body at all levels: physically, psychologically, emotionally, and spiritually. Its aim is the discussion and spread of systematic structures that have in some way helped those with chronic pain, myself included. Inclusive will be both western medical and eastern non-traditional practices.

Under the umbrella of my own long battle with an immunological-neurological disease called Pseudotumor-Cerebri (also known as Benign Intracranial Hypertension or/and Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension) diagnosed in 1992; and a complex clinical history with other conditions.

Please note that this is one of three sister websites:

Thank you very much for your support and encouragement as we journey a difficult road through chronic pain!

Pseudotumor Cerebri Website: Chronic Pain Introductory Paragraph

The birth of this website is deep-rooted in my condition, Pseudotumor Cerebri, and my long struggle with the signs and symptoms, and failed treatments, of an immunological-neurological dis-ease, and what it means to live with one. My vision here is to generate a platform for open discussion, research/investigation, think tanks, and dispersal of information; a knowledge base and experiential foundation, and to continue an exploration of pain manifested over time, on the path to physical wellness and liberation.

            Three websites are linked here, for your convenience: www.pseudotumor.life, about my experience with the medical side of this condition; www.onemomentintime.com, about dealing with the chronic side of physical, psychological, and emotional pain. This website covers and array of subjects, offers suggestions, resources, & links. Lastly, it also serves as a blog for thoughts of a journey through an insidious chronic daily path; and  www.unsusurro.com (same as previous, in its Spanish language version). The aim is to cover all aspects of chronic pain: the modern Asclepian [after Asclepius, first doctor demi-god in Greek mythology*] medical system, as well as Hygeian [after the healing Goddess Hyeia].
