Default Tired of being shuffled around~

About three months ago, I started having abdomal pain. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it. My GP examined me and sent me to my Gastro doctor. Since it wasn't time for my regular colon test he ordered a cat scan with dye for abdomial & pelvic area. All it showed was the back problems I have had for years & the 5 fusions I have had. He advised me to see my Ortho if it kept up. He ordered 4 xrays and said he couldn't operate anymore on me unless it was a life or death situation, that he had done all he could do for me. I am still in pain and can't bend down, without severe pain.

I know I have had a lot of surgeries but what do I do now? I'm not out of pain medicine, just don't like to take a lot of it. He seem to think it was diabetes. I am on my third medicine for it and I have been taken off all but brand name drugs. I have had diabetes for a long time. Any ideas?
