Welcome to Neuro Talk. You will find compassion here. Lots of us have this horrible pain. We exchange ideas that may help I have PN or RSD in left foot and ankle. I go see a physiatrist. This is a pain specialist first, and then she treats on a cellular level. I have medicare-medicaid, and you are right, NONE of my doctors excepts that. Only they do.... I confronted my pain doc. and asked her why she sees me at all. She said honestly, that some can pay, and some cannot. In her opinion it balances out. I am ever so grateful she does see me on a regualar basis. Yes you do need more help. Some doctor has to take heart with you and treat you like a human being in pain. When you find this doctor, your life will get better. It is a question of searching. Get angry about it if you have to. You deserve good care no matter what state you are in, or what you financial situation is. Living in pain does drive a person nuts. It causes depression, and a feeling of worthlessness. Seek the help. If you post near where you live, perhaps someone on our site will have a name for you. Also your primary care doctor, should give you a referral, and if necessary call that doctor himself to get you in. don't give up, get assertive and find that care. We all will support you here on NT, while you go through these issues.
Have heart, someplace there will be help for you. ginnie
