Guest guest Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 Hi Cat, I wish you the absolute best on your " new " lead. I also want to thank you for helping the amazing cronic pain patients that have to endure so much on top a dif. illness. I hope that they get better recognition there than they get here. I finnally gave in & went to a pain specilist. I didn't want to because I didn't just want to cover up the problem, I needed to find the source. I may have 'been the best thing that happened. I still don't have a diagnosis for this RA problem , exept that it is an Autoimmune disease, ( I saw the show wt. Nissa) & felt it was Stills. I have Fibromuyalgia but that RD never cared to check into something ELSE . The new RD.asked me to consider the pain management. I thought well at least now they have an IDEA that it is in the mean time I can get relief. I left the old Rd. & also the pain med. he gave me that only gave me occacional relief. But I was so gratefull that he gave me something at all that I settle for that. For any body that is sufering wt. severe pain I highly recomended them to look in to tratment. They not only just want to give med. but help check what the source of it could be. they'll be cheching in to my hormones levels & many other things that cause pains that we don't think that could be agrevating an allready bad condition. I don't know if they'll get to resolve any thing more than what a PCP did but if any thing is found to make it worst I'm up to rule it out. I wouldn't do it if I had no insurance but we need all the help, we never know where it may come from. Thanks VIVI. **************Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place. Try it now.
