Hi I am sorry but can relate to this. I do have mental health issues in my past and now that I have rsd and pn I have had issues with doctors and care because of it. I feel very frustrated and alone. I am the first to say that I have past problems and now of course due to the pain I live in my depression and anxiety is bad but I am in op treatment for that with a psych and it is being managed to the best it can and I feel that it should not effect my physical care. You don't hear of people not being treated for cancer because they are depressed and this should be the same. I can only see this being a problem if one is in such a mental state they are not able to make a choice like this or to have some people in treatment for the mental aspects and then the pain doctor could do his part. Like a team approach. Don't give up. Hopefully through this bad experience good will come.
