Is Chronic Pain a “National Crisis”?

I recently saw an opinion article on chronic pain as a national crisis in healthcare, and this is a concept that seems to be coming up again and again. Eyes seemed to be opening to this about a year ago, when I first read about how research into pain processing and treatment was being spurred by war casualties – medical advances mean a lot more of our wounded military personnel are surviving, but their injuries are leaving them in constant pain.

Doctors make some gains against fibromyalgia pain

Lynne Matallana likens the pain that racked her body to acid running through her veins. It came on after uterine surgery in 1993 — a traumatic event, because she woke up in the middle of the operation — and it never went away. In the two years that followed, she saw 37 doctors. They diagnosed her with lupus, blamed her pain on stress, or said it was all in her head. None of the remedies they recommended helped.
