A patient experience - an interview with Sofia Fateh PART 1

In this episode, Glyn and Konrad talk to Sofi Fateh. Sofi is now 18, but developed chronic widespread pain when she was 12. Having seen many doctors, having had many tests and scans and different treatments which did not work, she finally entered a pain rehabilitation programme. Sofi explains her pain journey. Sofi's story is interesting, fascinating, emotional and tells us much about the journeys pain patients take. Hopefully it will be helpful for pain patients, those around them and healthcare professionals.
