I was referred to a pain doctor by my neurologist. It's all awkward for me, I was sent to the neuro for a combination of undiagnosed pain issues and migraines. Finally she referred me to a pain doctor who diagnosed me. My neuro says she doesn't see the point of two doctors trying to treat the same condition because things could get awkward and mixed up (they aren't part of the same clinic so records don't get shared in real time like she's used to) so I only see the pain doc as part of my CRPS management. I got released from my neuro's care yesterday for my migraines. (yay! ) And I continue to see my GP as needed to manage my other health conditions. I've seen that lots of people here end up with whole teams of doctors and I'm glad that for now I can keep it down to two.
