#chronicpainawareness — Public Fediverse posts

I wanted to go.
My body said no.

I’m smiling, but I’m in pain — and most cancer survivors are too.

I’m smiling, but I live with chronic pain; many cancer survivors experience ongoing pain and lymphedema after surgery, even when there is no obvious swelling, and this invisible reality often goes unnoticed while we continue with daily life; sharing it openly helps others recognize symptoms and advocate for proper care.

"7. “I’m in more pain than someone could even imagine. I wouldn’t wish this pain on my worst enemies. I don’t like to complain to those around me because if I did, I’d be complaining 24/7 and I don’t want to be ‘annoying’ or ‘a burden’ to anyone.”
