However when I was taking it, it did work. I wish I had some words to help you. I do have empathy for those of us in critical pain. Don't give up, search for the help. Maybe even post where you are located, and some of our members may know a good pain specialist. Also there is a doctor called a physiatrist. They specialize in pain, and also treat at a cellular level. You will be in my prayers. ginnie   |
Oh my jacjie you are so strong & ginnie speaking of physiatrist, thats what my dr is & different from pm/anes b/c they concentrate on "functioning" as in "are you or how are you functioning?" Everytime i go to my dr he tells me all the scary dea stuff that is happening to other drs & instead of his jovial kind laugh & beautiful smile he is grumpy, furrowed brow & frowning.I saw him smile minimally @ last appt but i was there 2 hours. I can hear your screams & it makes my stomach flip over, please at least no more myelograms, ok? Have you read everything by dr charles burton & dr j aldrete? The a word? I will tell you anything that i have learned, have studied for 12 hours a day since september. Please i care so much, what can i help you with? Thank you for saying that i was a gift, this condition makes me feel like im a burden to all even though i dont ask for any help, it comes from their frustration that i cant just go to grocery, church, birthday parties unless im spared that day, i want to commit in my heart but dont know what my body will do!
