I am so sorry you are in this predicament! This angers me very much!
I can not believe this!!
You have a VERY serious condition, of which you have vested in getting TWO SCS's - and this Dr won't even lift his pinky to write out a script for your BT pain, yet his pockets have been VERY generously lined with $$. Yes he may be very skilled, but this goes beyond arrogance.......this crosses over in to laziness, GREEED and NEGLECT.
This makes me absolutely SICK.
I don't know what to say.
I'm just so sorry.
My Dr who did my implant sounds VERY similar to yours, and yes I guess I can understand that he's very busy doing his high-end procedures - but he should at least have a specialist of some sort to take care of this so-called 'little' stuff...which in reality isn't 'little' whatsoever - this is our quality of LIFE we are talking about. You aren't getting any follow-thru healthcare on procedures that target very serious pain conditions. Unbelievable.
Something just isn't right with this picture.
You should NOT have to be in this situation.
