An update on my vigil of pain

One thing really ticks me off. He could have let me know his results weeks ago by email or phone . No I had to waste another six weeks of my life getting nowhere. Between the pain from going to his office and now I'm still not even able to move in bed and it's been three days . Now I'm kinda ****** OFF too. But he's not in pain so they just don't get it . I never ever thought I'd grow up and have back pain . My dad use to have some and I guess I didn't really know till I'm in it . But he never was down just said it ached.
Going on two years since I started trying to get fixed up any wonder I'm on edge.
 
It's official the pain Dr Josephson has called and denied me his services as a pain Dr. I called Dr Harrop office and I'm waiting to hear his next brilliant move. I'm really losing faith in Jefferson hospital.
I'm never getting better at this point.
 
Update if anyone wants to know. I've been refused by three pain centers , rothman , releiveus , and Dr josephson , I saw a second surgeon a Dr Atlas ,, very confident and I respected the man an Dr ,,, he told me my spine can't take anymore operations, adding please don't let anyone operate on my spine. He suggest more meds and medical marijuana . So my Dr came today ,,, I was in agony from the visit yesterday,,, but we talked about the meds ill be getting morphine again so ill need constant help with the binding it does to the guts. Medical marijuana may be in my future too. I'm lined up in March for Jefferson pain management hope this new specialist can cut the nerve or block it. I'm not into the pump idea too restricting , no stimulator either took twenty years to get the last one out. It died in two years so my body eats the batteries I guess or to much **** in the blood. Lol And joy of joys now I have a problem with swelling in my left leg and foot. Ace bandage makes water squeeze out the pores YUPP I'm lucky , broke a tooth off , no answer from the dentist , can't afford the $500 for him to glue it back on. Fun

Geez, that sucks. Can you do an epidural block, or have you tried accu puncture to block the pain?
I know both require frequent visits. I guess that's part of the problem..
Hoping you find an answer.
 
I had two epidural shots , no relief, my visiting Dr discussed the acupuncture but not covered by Medicare and I have no extra at all. SS disability is $1,173 a month, house taxes are $6,000 , @year , so it don't go far with all house bills car ins. She's said about a nerve cut in that spot. Recotome or something she said. I'm going back to deluded ,,, morphine ,,, in a week . See how it helps this time big gut troubles with them . Makes concrete out of crap. The back Dr on Monday said my spines been through to much all ready. Not to let anybody operate on it . I had a butcher in 1979 he made me cripple , but I couldn't prove it back then so he got away with ending the life I could have had.
So I see Jefferson pain specialist on Mar 3rd.
 
Guess ill put the next downside to death, the broken tooth is throbbing . No answer from the dentist yet , have to wait five days anyway ,, blood thinners,,, gonna be a fun time this week . If I can get an answer from the dentist. If not ill have to get my daughter to drive me and she won't get her income . I still don't know what I ever did to deserve all this hell I have to go through. Going to be slim on living for a long while . Now this is a real bite I don't need.
