Hi Dan, My pain had changed though the years and it also changes with the seasons and weather.  When I  think about it I never know what to expect day to day.  I am  just so thankful to know that I woke up. When I am sitting up I will usually do ok.  I can tilt / recline and even in summer I might have a light blanket on me--I have to use one in the car too.   My body ' is all weird ,,and when I am cold I hurt.  Some days when I am hurting in my ribs I do have pain patches that I can wear, and that helps alot.  My body rebels when I am being put back in the bed.  I have several spasms that  usually hits my legs and butt area.   In about 30 minutes they are not bad. I sleep in a hospital bed with a special mattress ,but it isn't a electric air mattress.   My doctor has tried in the past to get me one ,but I didn' t  qualify for one because I didn't have sores or ulcers.  Pain  doesn't mean anything.  One day those folks will learn about pain.
