Pete Moore from the UK and co-author Mary Wing from Australia collaborated in this edition of the Pain Toolkit Here is a welcome video from Pete & Mary Pete says...A persistent pain problem can be difficult to understand and manage on an everyday basis. Like many people I struggled to manage my pain back in the early 1990’s. I was lucky to get myself on a pain management programme, which gave me the information, but more importantly, the confidence to manage my pain, myself. Since 1997, I haven't had the need to take any pain medication, simply because I still use the information from the programme. Is it easy? Well it’s like most things, you have to work at it. I’m not an academic guy, but all I can tell you, is that if I can do it, then I know others can. The Pain Toolkit is a simple information booklet that could provide you with some handy tips and skills to support you along the way to manage your pain. It is not meant to be the last word in pain self-management but a handy guide to help you get started. All you need to be is willing to read it and take on board some of the suggestions. Good luck!

So is persistent pain and fibromyalgia a problem a problem around the world? Yes, it’s become a problem worldwide. For instance here in the UK the short answer is yes, so you are not on your own. Here are some facts from the British Medical Journal Chronic (BMJ) Pain affects between one-third and one-half of the population of the UK, corresponding to just under 28 million adults, based on data from the best available published studies. This figure is likely to increase further in line with an ageing population. People with persistent pain were more likely to be anxious or depressed - 69% with severe pain are worried about their moods. Pete says…I receive daily emails from people who are worried, anxious and even get depressed. Is Fibromyalgia common? The NHS in the UK says… Some estimates suggest nearly 1 in 20 people may be affected by fibromyalgia to some degree. One of the main reasons it's not clear how many people are affected. 12 Pain Toolkit Tools Tool 1 - Accept that you have persistent pain ... and then begin to move on Tool 2 - Get involved, building a support team Tool 3 - Pacing daily activities Tool 4 - Learn to prioritise/plan out your days Tool 5 - Setting Goals/ Action Plans Tool 6 - Being patient with yourself Tool 7 - Learn relaxation skills Tool 8 - Meaningful movement (keeping active) Tool 9 - Keep a diary and track your progress Tool 10 - Have a setback plan Tool 11 - Teamwork Tool 12 - Keeping it up and being resilient.

This Pain Toolkit ....is for people who live with Neuropathic persistent, long-term pain. Living with Neuropathic Pain by Keith Meldrum Persistent or long-term neuropathic pain presents challenges that are different from other forms of persistent pain (known as nociceptive and nociplastic pain). The most important distinction is that with neuropathic pain there is underlying damage to a person’s nervous system. Neuropathic pain is defined as “pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system”. The somatosensory nervous system is a network of neurons that help people recognize objects, discriminate textures, generate sensory-motor feedback, and exchange social cues. What this means from the perspective of day to day life is that neuropathic pain is always present. It may modulate in intensity throughout the day, but the pain remains. Neuropathic pain is often best described as burning, shooting, stabbing, tingling, numbness, pins and needles, and hot and cold. Some common effects of neuropathic pain include allodynia and/or hyperalgesia. Allodynia is pain that is evoked by a stimulus that is usually not painful, such as a feather or clothing against someone’s skin. Hyperalgesia is an increased response to pain that already exists. These feelings are constant, daily, inescapable, and underscore the reason why it is important to understand the complexity of persistent neuropathic pain and how to best consider, implement, and modify effective pain self-management techniques. The principles of self-management are important but need to be considered in the context of neuropathic pain.

Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.
