My pain specialist is not wanting to prescribe meds for my current foot problem. He wants me to get surgery. However, the doc who told me I needed surgery and said he would do it, has not scheduled me in for it. I get the cold shoulder when I call in about where I am on his waiting list. I don't think he wants to do the joint replacement as medicare doesn't pay him enough. Now what do I do? If I can't get meds for this, nor get the surgery, just what do they expect me to do? ginnie
