You might have seen my latest blog post about the Biojrnl app. The developer emailed me earlier to say that he is offering my readers three months of the Pro version free of charge. I thought it was an incredibly kind offer, so I just wanted to share it with you. @biojrnl

I have just read this fantastic article by @invisiblymeblog. Please read it if you get the chance & share it. None of us choose a life with chronic pain or illness, but there is so much vitriol against us in the media, and thanks to that in society. Brilliant post Caz.

#NewBlogPost Sometimes it's useful to track pain or other symptoms to find out if there's a pattern or trigger. In this post, I have written a review about a new health tracking app — Biojrnl. #Chronicpain #chronicillness #health despitepain.com/2026/09/19/bio… via @DespitePainBlog

The small, familiar comforts matter a great deal when you’re in pain. This can be seen as coming home to your own bed, or having a nice hot cup of tea at the end of the day, if that’s your thing." lovely post by @AChVoice achronicvoice.com/how-to-live-wi…

Because of our pain, we often have to put life on hold. We might need to postpone plans, family visits or even appointments. We look at our diaries and have to make a choice: cancel or push through. Both choices have consequences. #ChronicPain #PainAwarenessMonth #PforPAIN

P is for PRETEND There are days when people see us and think we look fine, so they presume we must be fine. They might even think we're pretending to live with pain. But the truth is, sometimes we're pretending to be healthy. #ChronicPain #PainAwarenessMonth #PforPAIN
