I told them no thank you and (again) said I was just there as a formality to set up a meeting to have my spinal cord stim settings changed by Boston Scientific. They were astonished. And handed me the sales reps first name and number on a post it and told me to set it up for anytime they’re open. Okay. Thanks.
I didn’t bother discussing bone density I think it’s not in their area of expertise (since they didn’t seem so expert at pain).
Oh well. I will find another doctor for it. (Or maybe contact the original physician who diagnosed me)
What!?

That's terrible!
