Hi Lottie, My NP said the same thing a few days ago. I was so offended. It is an ignorant thing to say "That though I'm bad, they have seen worse". That doesn't make me feel any better. I still hurt constantly from rsd and fibro and it stinks. I'm sorry you had the same thing happen to you. It's just not right.
