Audarah, you've gotten the best advice from Tina. My heart goes out to you and I do hope that your attorney is on top of this. I've often used ice to distract myself from the pain. There are mindfulness techniques that can help you cope with the pain but they do take time to learn. If you have access to a public library, look for the author Jon Kabat-Zinn and what he has published regarding mindfulness and pain. I haven't had surgery for this so I don't have any experience to share. I do hope you find a doctor who can help you more than your current one.
