hugsss again..and good luck, sarah

Mean Doctors suck, and I know, I was a nurse until car wreck took that from me, a good one is hard to find but worth their weight in gold and I hope you find one soon!!

Man!!! I really hate that you had to waste time and money on this great @#$ of a doctor- not to mention the stress he put you thru- with no relief to boot!!!!!!
I hope things turn around soon! Hopefully someone will know someone, who knows someone with the same insurance, that has a doctor, that can treat your TOS pain.
Good Luck

I found mine by listening to my SIL run down a Dr that is not afraid to write a Rx. My Sil is a nurse that works with addicts so in her eyes any dr that writes a script for pain meds is horrible! My Dr is very knowledgeable and kind. I do go to a pain Center for the hard stuff

Junie- that just sucks! I hate to hear that their are docs out there like that. I can't believe that they would put you through that and have the nerve to tell you its ALL in your head. I might have lost it at that point and pointed out some of his shortcomings. not productive, but it makes me feel better- temporarily. I hope your ins. can work something out with you.

About 5 years ago I saw a doctor that was almost the same. He was quick and would brush me off. The worst was his office staff. His nurse was like a drill sargent. I use to have nightmares the night before I had to go to his office.

I had botox injections scheduled and my husband actually took me to the appointment because I couldn't drive after. Turns out that my insurance had decided not to cover the botox and the drill sargent starts yelling at me for it and telling me she didn't know why I showed up for the appointment. I had no idea.

My husband fired the doctor right then and there. When you deal with chronic pain you need to have a doctor and staff that are empathetic and will take the time for you.

You need to move on. It took me a while but I finally found doctors that are not only intelligent but compassionate. Don't give up hope.
