Default Hi Messy Mark

Good for you! Sometimes health care providers are plain wrong. They also don't always treat a patient on pain meds. with respect. I also walked out on a doctor, who was my pain specialist but would not prescribe meds. for after a surgery????? What ?????? I am glad you told that person off. If this had been going on over and over again, maybe a letter to inform on the behavior would be good too. I wish more of us stood up to the Stuff that is thrown at us. I didn't ask to be in pain, and neither did you. I appreciate someone who can stand up to these health providers that are on some kind of a rant. Bet someday when they are in pain, the attitude will fly right out the window. ginnie

I actually called back and spoke to the supervisor of the pain center. He told me he will look into so I guess we'll see how things turn out but either way I will be moving on. I'm trying everyday to get better and reduce my pain level it's not like I sit in the house all day. I get out and try to walk as far as I am able to every day rain or shine my Photography shows that *edit* so if they are not willing to help in this journey then I don't need the negativity

Default Hi Messy mark

Loved the link. Keep on fighting. Let me know what the office says after you tell the doc. what was going on. I would move on too actually. Enough is enough. We all have a lot on our plate, and do not need negativity thrown at us. I will be hoping some resolution can be had for you. Find a great doctor who has a bit of empathy. ginnie

Thanks Ginnie I will keep you in the loop. As for the comment about MJ earlier yeah it's not legal here either. I also get tested every time I go to to the pain center so I would lose my disability also if I come up positive and I did enough of that when I was younger lol. Btw I'm 43 I know young pup young pup at heart wise old dog otherwise who knows when to stay on the porch and when not to.
