Chronic Pain Support Group
Physicians and professionalsdefine pain as chronic if it lasts longer than three to six months and is persistent. It's distinct from acute pain that is a direct result of injury or trauma. This support group is dedicated to those suffering from chronic pain. Discuss treatments that have worked for you, find advice for your specific experience, and find support. You're not...
What is going on with you? Are there any other treatments you can do that do not involve the pain meds? Can you get a pain patch, shots, anything else? Can you find another doctor who will understand that you are in pain and you need something?
Ouch
good luck trying to convince your doctor ... you need a 2nd opinion ... My girlfriends doctor seems to understand what medicine she needs when her previous doctor thought it was all in her head!
In the meantime maybe you could try hot baths or showers and heat. Good luck to you and please keep us updated on how you're doing.
