Do i need to be referred to a pain management doctor by the doctor that is currently giving me pain meds?
The reason i am asking is because this doctor is a complete jerk!!
I am currently only taking ultram and it is NOT helping!!
I told him and he said try taking tylenol with them..Yeah, ok!!
I was taking percocets for over a year up until june of this year.Could i ask that doctor to refer me?I mean the one that was giving me the percocets..
When i asked him to refer me he gave me a paper for a pain specialist-but when i called i found out it was a doctor that gives cortisone shots and nerve shots.
I need to get into pain management already.I am tired of suffering!!
I know with my insurance i have to have a refferal,just not sure who has to be the reffering.
Thanx
