Default Very frustrated

I am very frustrated with the med trials.

Here is what I have tried so far:

Plaquenil (extreme personality changes)
Neurontin (depression - however is WAS working for the pain)
Lyrica (sped up my nervous system - made me feel horrible! and don't even get me started on the withdrawal)
Prednisone (extreme agitation)


My doc says I only have a few options left. Morphine sulfate (which I am afraid to become addicted to) or Methotrexate (afraid of the side effects).

Is he right? Are these really my only options? Or do I need to consider finding another doctor? He seems to be getting frustrated with me in that I am having problems with these meds. He doesn't seem to understand that these meds interfere with my Bipolar meds and cause mood changes.

Any ideas you guys might have for me?
