So yesterday was HORRIABLE to say the least, I went to see a "new doc" or so I thought after 2months of no doctor I had an appointment drove about an hour only to be told by this Jerk he didnt want to treat me after driving an hour, sitting for another hour put in a room that had NOT been cleaned it had crap all over from past patients from injections I think then He said he'd take my grandma but not me then said well if I were you in constant pain Id be depressed well duh

so he said he'd "take me" as a patient if I went on Lyirica & depression meds which cost around $500 between both now this is after telling him how we cant afford something thats going to cost that he said find a new pharmacy! Also he said after being told Ive been without a doc cuz nobody wants to take me cuz I'm too complex of a case that basically I should save up & see my old doc (who went to a sports med place & is $600 for new paient fee) are you serious is all I kept thinking, I left in tears. I really dont know if I can keep doing this, I have been in the ER 2x in the last 2wks cuz the pain is so bad I cant take it I am at a loss of what to do anymore, Im so depressed & I am at the end of my rope so is my poor mom who can see Im giving up due to no life which kills me. I feel horriable seeing how much it hurts her to see me this way & I just know I am really struggling to see any light at the end of a dark tunnel. what kind of life is being in so much pain the only time u get out of bed is to use bathroom get food/drink walk dogs or have a somke?? that is my life every day I dont even cook anymore cuz I am not able to stand long enough to do that. Im ready to call it quits :balling:
