When Pain is Stronger than Pain Medications

This had to be the worst part of EDS Hypermobility Type. Of course everything is hard with EDS Hypermobility Type, but this is so hard. I woke up this morning with alot of pain all over. On mornings like roots morning, I'd much rather stay in bed, in hopes of avoiding extra pain. However, this Sunday morning, I needed to get my butt to church to praise God for giving me life and helping me through EDS. I still have pain, even though I took all the pain medication I'm allowed to. The strongest thing I have (tramodol) made a small dent in my pain level, but because it wasn't the first thing I took to ease pain, I now have pain, can't sit still and feel a little out of it and loopy.  My brain feels super distracted and totally not normal. I wish pain medication was always stronger than pain.  Unfortunately, as those of us with chronic pain know very well, it doesn't seem to work that way very often.
