Hey there Ms. Debbie...remember me?. I read that hormones did play a big role with increased pain at the time of the cycle. I remember reading it in a medical magazine at my Pain management Doctors office last year and discussing it with him. Sorry I don't remember the magazine but it did say they were continuing to do research regarding it.

Sorry your are going through all that your describing. Hopefully things will get straighten around for you and you will get some relief. Love, love, love our insurance companies though. I'm sure your Doctor is doing the best he can do for you right now other wise I know you would be looking for a new one. Take care...
Hugs, Jewells
