Chronic Pain Shrinks People's Brains By Robert Roy Britt LiveScience Senior Writer posted: 22 November, 2004 5:00 p.m. ET Pain causes an unexpected brain drain, according to a new study in which the brains of people with chronic backaches were up to 11 percent smaller than those of non-sufferers. People afflicted with other long-term pain and stress might face similar brain shrinkage, said study leader A. Vania Apkarian of Northwestern University.

When To File For Iu And Other Service Connected Problems.
I have done research for my pstd and I want to file for IU and the other claims which I have not filed for. I went to the va office and was advised to NOT file for the above right now because I have a NOD pending on the comp rating and other problems have not been addressed. Do I sit back and wait or do I insist the paper work be filed? I really want to get the ratings to protect my wife in case I pass on.

His bones are breaking down from what I believe is 20 years of predizone.He has constant pain in his hip and he also fractured his leg below the knee when he bent over to place a piece of paper under a door last spring. He now is to the point where he suffers fro…
