It sounds like you're doing everything you can to help your situation, Erika. It's got to be frustrating when doctors don't or won't try to see things from our point of view. I know they've had formal training/education.....

.....to be able to make informed decisions but when you're the one in pain and you're trying to explain to them that
any relief is a blessing well, then......it's pretty upsetting when they don't listen and think they know our pain better than we do. I hope you get some relief soon.
