It took me four different doctors that I interviewed before I found the pain specialist I wanted. They are not all the same. some can be very very good. Mine is a physiatrist, she specialized in pain control. You need more than ER visits. They should never treat someone badly like that. Each hospital has a patient advocasy program. You can and should complain if you received bad treatment. There is no excuse to be mean. Nobody can help being in pain.
Seek that pain speciaist and go out of your way to do so. There are some ver compasionate doctors out there if you take the time to find them. ginnie
