AnnotationPain and dementia are common in the elderly population, and may co-exist, yet relatively little is known about their interaction. This report is of an 81 year old woman with a life long history of pain, who first attended the North West Hospital Pain Management Centre in Melbourne in 1992, and whose pain reporting altered as she developed dementia.
