CHRONIC PAIN
No two people experience pain alike. What makes this scale unique is that it allows you to create a personal scale using your own words to describe how your pain feels to you and how well (or not) you are able to function at each of the self-described levels.
        After dealing with chronic pain for several years, I realized that I needed a better tool for talking with my doctors: a scale that would describe my perception of pain. I created a way to describe the intensity of my pain in terms we all understand, and I can easily revise it any time my situation changes
        Using the traditional range of 0-10, I added a description and examples that describe what I feel and experience.   I gave a copy of this scale to my doctors and they were able to understand what I hadn't been able to get across to them before.  Because of this simple change in communication, they are now able to help me manage my pain better than ever before.
