Default Fed up!

Does anyone just get fed up with doctors telling them they cant help them? Or you need to see a specialist? I am getting the run around. Now my neuro wants to have me checked to something else all together. They say cause i dont have ALL the symptoms of crps that i dont have it now after a year. What is up with that.. The only 2 i dont have is.. the red discoloration, and the sensitivity to touch..My bone scan and Mri both showed thats what i have, and now after a year, well now im not sure what is wrong. Then what the hell are you treating me for?? I am just so tired of doctors giving me the run around. These guys are supposed to be professionals here. They are supposed to know more that i know. And its aggravating.. The last pain management dr i went and seen, he was a resident, he used reflex hammer on bad side. missed his thumb. and hit my nerve and i ended up frozen and was off work for 3 days because of it.. Had to go get a shot in the but of toradol.. Now there is obviously a problem here right? They arent supposed to make your pain more severe, but my 15yo son about came out of his chair and punched him in the face. He had appt that day, we had to drive 2 hours there.lol.. he was not happy.. the doc was squeezing my rsd arm so hard i was crying, it was horrible and he didnt care. I decided then that i wasnt going back. I am just so tired of this crap..I havent had ANYTHING for pain throughout this whole year and i am sooo tired of hurting.. I cant get anyone to write me a script for anything. I have a script for lyrica, but its high dollar and my insurance wont pay for it.. and wc isnt footing the bill yet. lawyer is working on it, but they are still fighting it, the jerks. So i suffer, and Im tired of fighting, and crying, SO what am i supposed to do.. cus the pain doc says go to family doc. the family doc says go to specialist.. i get nowhere.pain doc wont write anything stronger than naprosyn. seriously..and well i have taken it for a year. he wont up it.. it just stays the same..my scripts are the same no matter what.. NO NARCOTICS.thats his motto. am i just doomed to suffer through all this for the rest of my life? I am only 35.. i mean really is there some sort of pain relief? i know there isnt full relief, but is there atleast some that i can get at some point? and just when is long enough suffering for me to endure?.. Sorry for ranting.. but its so hard to do this day to day. with no help for pain.. and i dont want to keep going to hubby cuz he gets so upset cuz he cant help me.. and noone else will. He wants so bad to hit those doctors, and hes the one that makes me keep going to find others that may help..Hes always saying we will find one that will help, but i say when, when I am ready to just give up and lay down and just let it consume me? cuz im about there now...
