Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Hi plucked up the courage and called the hospital and paged my pain doc. The said who are you ? a clleague? NO I said his patient. he was in a meeting. But hes lovely and took my call I told him I am in pain and exhausted he is calling me back in 30 minutes, I am exhausted pains worn me down... he said that he has ketamine lozenges, or he may drag me in there...to see him.......if its him there then.... I will go .....for noone else thats to the hospital to be admitted arghhhh prison. I just hate it in there I pace I cant keep still.... its like being confined In tears, pain when its bad just makes me cry....... He wanted to know what my Gp said yesterday i said she wanted to get a wand out he said dont we all. saw the neurolgost..... no help yesterday) he said my pain doc is his senior colleague... I sais Matey i dont expect you to have answers but you deal in nerves and can do nerve conduction tests etc... he said wouldnt work on me..... due to pain location darn it I said well you work in the same hospital, you may not have an answer now , but you may come up with something and can work together... I also said you will be in the neurosurgery unit when it opens in a few months in the hspital and its there they will do pain pumps correct??? so thats why i am here He was a little overwhelmed I felt.... he wqs teh one that ordered the blood patch when I had a dural headache and was optimistic it would help. only to be cancelle dby my now sacked nasty pain doc .I said he took 1 hour 10 mins to get needles in my spine, I havent laid a complaint yet.... he said well eh has also heard same thing about same doc in last few weeks interesting anyway waiting for the call.... debs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
