Heart Hello
Hi Jennelle,
It is good to see you again.

My ortho doc would not prescribe more than Darvacet and 800 mg. motrin. He wanted to stop the Darvacet,too!The ortho doc told me that to continue with any pain med in that category, or higher,like Lortab, would excite the pain receptors even more, and then my body would be in a constant state of pain. I told him I was in a constant state of pain,already!!

That is when I went to PCP, she dx RSD, and the Neurontin, Lortab, etc., began. Then eventually, I was sent to PM doc, and now he handles my meds.

I was wondering how things were going for you. Listen to your lawyer. Why aren't you receiving proper pain management? Irritating, isn't it? Hang in there..sounds like you are still fighting the WC dragon. Keep your sword up..well, let the lawyer be your sword. That is why he gets paid.

Keep me informed of how you are doing,ok?
