What do you do when you injure yourself on top of being ill?
I've torn tendons and ligaments in my ankle.
When mobility is already restricted, any further restrictions cause a lot of additional burden.
The implications are broad-reaching things are made exponentially more difficult.
These are some of the things I'm exploring in today's episode.

Episode 148: What About Secondary Injuries? The Impacts

Are you one of the millions living with a chronic illness or pain?  Our diseases may be very different, but we have many of the same experiences, obstacles and frustrations.   We are all working for a better quality of life knowing that pain and limitations will be our traveling companions.  My name is Annette and I'm the host of Chronic Wellness, a brief, weekly, podcast where we talk about it all: sex, self-care, mental heath, loss of identity, anger, how to navigate health care and have less days that suck so hard.

I have this belief that: If health is the absence of disease, and wellness is the presence of wholeness;  whether or not I'm ever "healthy" again, I can work work toward my wellness, my wholeness.  

Curious?  Join me where you listen to Podcasts, for a few moments of Chronic Wellness.
