I wonder if I should live with the pain and forget the doctor appt's. So far they haven't helped one tiny bit but to make be feel hopeless,pathetic and a bit crazy.

Sounds like a typical worthless/piece of garbage doctor... pity our country only has about 50,000 of them, our lovely insurance companies could certainly use a few more with their outlook on human health
It took me 3 years after my injury to look into alternative therapies, and it's only been through those alternative therapies that I have found any relief (and there has been a lot of it). A well trained bodywork specialist could likely do WONDERS for your pain, and wouldn't leave you in perpetual catatonia like your lovely pain specialist's regimen would either.
Just food for thought... not all "alternative" therapies are based on astrology and BS, in fact the vast majority of them, at least from my experience, are FAR more effective than anything that the western medical community has to offer.
