Your doctor is not helping you. He is sending you to someone else and has offered nothing in the way of help. More testing isn't going to help the immediate problems. See a Physiatrist. Ask your Primary care doctor for a referal. Hemotologist is not the doc. of choice for most PN.
I have a PC lesson here in a bit, but if you want me to list the ingredients in my compounded medication, I can do that later today. This can be given to you by your Primary, along with lidoderms patches. Maybe these two can take the edge off until you see a Pain specialist, or someone who knows what they are doing. Your neuro, should have been able to prescribe something for you. I have no Idea why he shuffled you to someone else. I will be in touch. ginnie

Hi Dr. Smith and Stacy
I have been taking 2500 MCG /day of vit.b 12 but only for past month( not suggested by neuro but because I read on this board about importance of b12).
Hi Ginny
Yes I would like to have the ingredients for the medication.Thank You so much.
I think the reason he is sending me to a hematologist is because in one of the blood tests it said polyclonal gammopathy.
I also thought it weird that I have to see a hematologist.

Here is the list of this compounded med. It works pretty good too....
Keta/Clon/gaba/imp/meffen/tetra (1) 10%.

Just show this to your doctor and he will know what this is. It does cut the pain. It was not covered by my insurance.ginnie

I'm guessing ketamine, clonidine, gabapentin, and mefenamic acid, but the imp & tetra have me stumped.

Doc

Yep that's what the script is. I just didn't know how to spell them all!!!!! thank you. ginnie

Doc smith wrote out the whole words for the compounded medication on this thread. Yes is it a script, and my insurance won't cover it. ginnie

I highly recommend finding out about their appeal procedures. If you have your insurance through an employer, you can also ask the insurance broker how to appeal. One time, an insurance broker went to bat for me with the insurance company and got something approved that had previously been denied. You might also call a few compounding pharmacies in your area to get a quote for the medication and see what it would cost out-of-pocket. If you find it does help, that may be useful in writing an appeal.

I hate that dealing with crap from insurance companies comes at times when I least feel like dealing with it.
