oh wisewoman. Always so wise (and witty to boot!)

thank you for making me feel accepted!

Im having a heck of a time with my back lately and with headaches, and since opiate like drugs cause a nasty reaction with me I cant take much except nsaids. I suppose thats good, as I dont even have the opportunity to get into a mess with the narcotics ( as in getting addicted to them accidentaly - or purposefully.)

What are some other good ideas for dealing with pain in the moment?
