More Description21 Broken Bones is directed to the chronic pain patient who has not been able to get their pain under control. I am an anesthesiology critical care physician, an ex-rodeo clown, and ex-construction worker who broke 21 bones in an eleven-year span. I've studied pain for 35 years and have a good plan for how to manage chronic pain.Primarily, you need to take the lead in your care. Knowledge of what your pain represents is essential, and this knowledge will lead to relief. Self-assessments of pain are critical, and information on how to do that is included.I share some aspects of my own journey against pain. The need for multidisciplinary care is clearly defined. The person with chronic pain will see that their care will come from mainstream medicine, as well as areas that complement this care. The only aspect of this that is not a variable is that the patient must take the lead.
