Guest guest Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 First of all, I feel like I must apologize before every post I write from now on for that awful, post i sent a couple of weeks ago. I can make all kinds of excuses such as chronic pain, but that doesn't excuse my rant. So sorry for any offense. Please, may I come back? Beth, I cried the entire time I read your post. Here I am feeling sorry for myself and you have been through so much more. I have been to some questionable pain docs but none like the hippie methadone guy. I would have run out of there as fast as I could. I did sign a pain contract with Dr. L my current PMD. Last week I ended up in the ER my pain was so bad. I simply told the ER doc to contact Dr. L and explained my situation. There was no problem. An x-ray was taken and showed an increase in my fused curve from 69 to 74 degrees. The pain docs think this increase could possible be pressing on a nerve but nobody will give me an answer. I'm tired of taking all these narcotics; they make me tired and crazy. I have to get up the courage to call Dr. Bridwell for an appointment. The pain docs are saying the next step is to see if I qualify for a neuro stimulator; kind of like an internal tens unit. I will write more later. I think I should get some sleep before I do or say anything else I will regret. Thank you for listening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
