I'm so jealous. I went to a pain clinic that doesn't prescribe pain meds.

Yep, only I could manage that.

Subject: I went to the pain clinic

Ok, so I went to the pain clinin yesterday my doc refered me saying he

would not give me anymore pain meds I had to go to the pain clinic.

after waiting a month for an appointment, I went was sooooo nervous,

but it went GREAT. The doctor is VERY nice, a woman, my doc gave me 60

percoet for a month, she asked me if I thought that was sufficant,

thats only 2 a day, i told her, some days yes some no, she said ok, Ill

give you 90, on to the mucscle relaxers, also increased from 60 to 90 a

month. Yay, for me , I can finally take my pain meds when i need them,

instead of trying to limit them so they will last. Also she thinks

theres something " else " going on in my neck besides the fibro so she

ordered a CT scan, so we'll see. Just wanted to share me experiance.
