To be honest...at this point I have given up on RIC. In my train of thinking, no doctor/company/program that concentrates on pain management allows a patient to be in 6-9 pain 24/7 for 6 months.

Working with insurance to find another PM and most likely another PCP. I'm not looking for miracles or ultra specialization, I'm looking for someone to look at my functional decrease directly related to pain and attempt something more than "here's a new pill, try it for a few months" and when it doesn't work that's all they try. My function has gone from 60% 15 months ago to about 10-15% today.

Willing to go through whatever motions the insurance/doctor requires but I will not accept my healthcare team throwing their hands in the air and walking away when there are still options to try.
