Default doctor quest/go for it!

It is hard to find that special doctor that really does listen. One who does all he can and is involved in all aspects of your care. It took me years to find the ones I have now. I thank God daily. My first PCP put me on Morphine and told me I would be on it for my whole life. He was wrong. I found my current doctor, and she was wonderful to me in letting me wean off this drug. She is in integrative medicine, and uses vitamins,( B12 in particular), acue puncture, all kinds of out side the box thinking. A year ago I was in a wheelchair. My PN wouldn't let me walk. Today I am walking and in less pain without the narcotic! It takes a search to find the kind of doctor willing to try. I hope all those on NT, who do not like their physicians will go on the quest to find the one that can change their lives. To me this was nothing short of a miracle. I hope all of those who need a change will go looking for that kind of help. Ginnie
