Tam great news for you! I have moved and had to find a new dos which was very hard here in my area as it seems most docs and pain management centers where surprised of my meds and acted as though prescribing meds was wrong as they all believe in shots, I had one doc I saw through Ins. who yelled at me wondering why I was there! as he only gives shots. I found out through this new doc he could have given meds but why when he makes so much more giving shots and of course he has not have to works so hard.
New doc agreed to keep up my meds and to watch me and I am happy with him just seems that many pain docs are in it for the money and how many patients they can see in a day for shots, it could be a DEA thing also along with many who do not want the extra burden of Ins. so is it the Ins. companies who raise there prices on these docs.
I wonder if I am not getting enough meds to move more, I take enough to be able to move a little more yet the pain is still great I know I have a life time of this in my mind I just want to control my intake so I do not build up a tolerance so fast.
Tam I understand the forgetfulness I have my other half who is there for me to remember everything as I do not remember doing things like buying something online..the docs all talk to her as I try to listen but I tend to fade away, along with writing things on-line I wonder if I make any sense good thing for spell checker as I find myself not as smart as a fifth grader as of late. It is embarrassing I found myself growing up strong in numbers and history but find myself lost and in space.
I wish you well TAM! and thanks I would like the name of doc if you could pm me so I could have your doc talk to mine on some things, as he knows of RSD and TOS but I think it is scary for some docs to have a patient who has both.
