"She began to think she was going mad": how Poland's pain treatment fails patients

Anna Kiedrzynek, author of the book "Nie uszlachetnia. O leczeniu bólu w Polsce" (It does not ennoble. On pain treatment in Poland), says that chronic pain sufferers in Poland must convince doctors they are genuinely in pain — and often still do not receive proper treatment. The book's protagonist, Samanta, spent years searching for help while those around her doubted her suffering.
