Curing Chronic Pain: Stories of Hope and Healing

In 2004, Dr. Robert T. Cochran published Understanding Chronic Pain, a ground-breaking work exploring the links between pain, depression, childhood trauma, substance abuse, and bipolar disease. A companion to that work, Curing Chronic Pain demonstrates the advancements Cochran has made in successfully treating patients suffering from pain. He has found that chronic pain, a single core illness, can be alleviated with the careful application of certain drugs, even those in the controversial opiate class. In many cases, Cochran says, ¿miraculous cures have been achieved.¿ Presented in a conversational, anecdotal format, this book examines the specific experiences of chronic pain patients under Cochran¿s supervision. As a reader you will be struck by Cochran¿s warmth, compassion, intellect, and willingness to confront the complicated issues surrounding treatment. There is hope in Curing Chronic Pain.Cochran, Robert T., Jr. is the author of 'Curing Chronic Pain: Stories of Hope and Healing', published 2009 under ISBN 9781577364122 and ISBN 1577364120.
