      I agree with all the pain myths spoken about in the introduction of this course. As a result, comprehensive pain management is very difficult and as a medical doctor, I too, sometimes wander about the side effects of the medications. I agree with some of the above topics that education is key to being able to assess different types of pain in children at different levels of development. Following on this, we need guidelines in terms of drug use and dosage. I feel that we all know the basics, but what if that does not work, where to from there. I am looking forward (and have looked forward) to this part of the course, and know that I can only learn alot more about all aspects of pain in children

      While I fully agree that most pain can be managed pharmacologically, I quite enjoyed learning about other modalities: hypnosis, deep breathing, etc. As humans, we all respond to things differently and its good to know that there’s more on offer than just medication.
