Wow I cant believe this is happening to you hun and im so sorry!!! Are

there other pain clinics in the area that you could call to get an appt with

and tell them your situation?? I know that many gp drs wont prescribe

narcotic medication especially on a long term basis. Iwas lucky mine up in

CT was able to help me til i could go see a specialist but i know that isnt

always the case.

Can I ask you what meds you are on? im sure youve said it in past emails but

im just waking up here so i cant remember lol. I remember when i was

moving my dr wanted to ween me off everything until i got down here to a new

dr but i was not having it. instead he gave me neurontin til i got to my new

dr here but i looked at him and said hey you want me to withstand a 15hr

drive and move with no meds? are you crazy LOL. Thank god he had a sense of

humor:)

Anyways please keep me posted hun ok???

I love ya to pieces and hope you end up doing ok and someone can hepl you!!
