Guest guest Posted October 4, 2002 Report Share Posted October 4, 2002 I would think the doc's at u of m have a patients bill of rights they need to follow. Ours do here in Maine. Right now my 12 yr. old Cassie has been having pain continuously since she left hospital 9/20 - she's on percocet every 6 hrs for pain even though her levels have been normal for a week now. they say if she hurts they have to believe her and treat her as such. check into it good luck, heres to pain free days Patty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2002 Report Share Posted October 4, 2002 Seems like the docs at U of M cannot help my sis. No SOD dysfunction. SO now they are giving her elavil for pain. Her pain was not even being controlled by morphine, or anything else they have given her very well. How is this gonna help honestly? OH, and she has to wait a month to see if it will work. Any opinions? I know that this can help some with pain, but I highly doubt it will do much good as bad as I have seen her doubling over. Sigh.
