Re: Re: Grrr not calling in anything else for my pain/IDIOTS/sharon

[Guest guest]

I actually am going tomorrow to a specialist. Hopefully they will get the

pain under control. I am just mad at being made to suffer. I don't think

they think I am a drug seeker, GP just don't like to give anything like

vicodin. He has in the past, but don't know why he won't now. Ty for being

supportive. I appreciate it. Pray for me that I can last till tomorrow. I am

about to drive myself to the er cause I am desperate for pain control. This

is not fibro pain, it is ddd pain and herniated discs. There is a need for

pain control here. Not saying us fibromites don;t need it too, just saying

it is a different reason.

Hugs,
