Other options for pain management

Her psychologist during their sessions asks Anna what else is she doing to help manage her pain of OA. Anna says that from time to time her pain is severe and she feels that her pain medications are not efficient enough. She has also noticed that the higher the pain the more stressed and depressed and isolated she becomes. So, there seems to be some correlation between the two. She cannot even get a good night's sleep. 

Her therapist suggests she should visit a pain clinic to get professional help on managing her pain more efficiently. 

  • Makes an appointment in the pain clinic
  • Drinks alcohol to soothe her pain
