Cool Smirk just got back from docs....

Ok, now I am both confused and depressed after this visit.

First of all my doc has a new PA that see's pt's before he comes in. He is new and doesnt know me from adam!! (or eve..lol) He asked me all my history from the past 6 years with RSD, made me undress so he can see my legs and he proceded to touch them and see if would react to him touching... holy cow i was soo close from kickin him in the balls when he touched my foot!! he was sooo lucky that i had knee controll!! So it ****** my legs off and just made me want out more!! Then my doc comes in and says that there is nothing really left to do, other then the pain pump and i am still leary about it and so is he, he asked what meds I am on and I SWEAR to you that he said to give me Klonpin.... well my scipt the pa gave me was for clonodine hcl 0.1mg. I have been on the patches of this when i first had RSD and it did nothing but made me have hot flashes and fast heart beat. And of course when i relized this his office is closed... He wont give me anythng else besides this i guess.. I asked him about Ketamine and he said its not FDA approved yet and everyone out there must be on a clinical trial... Is this true?? He also confirmed that i have gone to full body RSD. The worst is in my lower extremities and the RSD is gettng to my hands and writs and elbows. I am running outta hope here and im not usually the one that does this. I love love my doc!! but yet if I konw that there are people out there getting pain meds and other stuff that he's not willing to try.. y stick with him?? I have seen him now for 6 years and i cant say anything bad about him other then he just wont give me pain meds and i dont want to ask him is it bc of the issue out there about docs giving out strong pain meds... i give up!! I need chocolate and a pepsi and I only have one of them in the house..lmao.

Thanks for letting me vent and if anyone can help.. i would love to hear it!! anything.. ...
