I'm trying to see if I have a patient neglect case. I told my pain doc, the trigger point injections aren't working and I'm still in pain. He refuses to prescribe anything and can't see me for a few days so essentially I'm left out in the cold to suffer. There has got to be laws protecting patients from this tomfoolery. I'm waiting on phone calls to see if I have anything. Will report back and in the meantime was wondering if anybody has ever had to lawyer up and how did things go.

Mods hopefully this is in the right section, if not please move it.

 
Good luck to you. Way to stand up for yourself!
Thanks. I really hope I have something here. I have voice recordings of me and the nurse specifically saying doc won't prescribe anything and me telling her how much pain I am in. You guys keep your fingers crossed!

 
Finger Crossed. I too have been in the same place as you!!

After complaining about the injections hurting me more

Then I already was. The do. Not listening. Saying over and over

No meds here. I just stop going. It's been 3 or 4 months now

& still no luck finding a doctor!! Pain has ruined my life!!

 
Aren't there any patient advocates in your town that could help? Just my shitty two cents.

You know I'm beginning to wonder if the trigger point injections made me worse. The pain does feel worse and like you it's ruined my life. I was at work today and probably did 3 hours worth of work in an 8 hour work day because I was having trouble sitting up. I wish pain people could unite and have some sort of law passed. What state are you in? PM if you'd like.

I really haven't checked. I thought I would find some allies here in my area but so far no luck. But you certainly may have pointed me in a good direction. I'll see what I can find. Thanks

 
@Headbanger...you're the man.....I found a great site. Lets see how things go. Will keep you guys posted.

 
Allhoney75, I'm happy for you that you're fighting for your right to a pain free life.  Good job and good luck.  We should all be that brave.  I hope you get results and please fill us in on what happens.

Will do. Definitely keep you guys updated!

 
Tried the patient advocay group. The woman basically told me to go search around for a good doctor and tell them I didn't want to live like this forever. She also told me women who are in pain management aren't really taken seriously and that she has no faith in pain management doctors as they simply want to give you the most expensive injection just to fatten their pockets. She basically told me stuff I already knew. She did say if I continued to have bad service to simply call her back..............seems like nobody wants to help.

 
All the friggin doctors in this country are afraid to prescribe opiates cause of all the media hype. You got medical records for shits sake. Ask this women if the pain patient was her or her mother or daughter. Would she have such a cavalier attitude then?

 
I completely agree HB. It's disgusting and hard to believe sometimes.

I get trigger point injections every month for the past year, usually 7 or 8 at a time in my neck, but she also gives me 120 of the 10 mg. Hydros a month. I am also limited to 4 hours a day at work because the arm motion makes it worse. Got another MRI scheduled for end of the month. Last visit she also put me on 800 mg. Ibuprofen, 3 times a day.

 
Yes it is hard to believe in this day and time pain patients are treated this way. And it's universal.................all over the net, people from various states are in horrible condition because they can't get what they need. I read about people commiting suicide because the pain was too great. I wish there was a way pain patients could get together and lobby for better laws regarding pain patients. There are enough of us out there......we just gotta get a movement going somehow.

Fargo your doc sounds like my old doc. She would give me 120 vikes but that was before the law changed plus I ended up moving to another state because I needed to be around family with my condition.

Sad part about this whole thing is I've nearly wiped out my savings due to healthcare costs. MRIs, CT scan, copays, costs for epidural or trigger point injections etc all add up after awhile. At this age, I hate to move back home but it's looking more and more like I might have to.

 
All honey-/ I waited 3 weeks to be seen at this new doc today!

I drove 2 hours. He pretty much laughed at me..

Said there was people worse then me nothing he can do.

Not even give me Zolof or z@naflex!!

I even showed him a photo of how I welp up over my

Whole body!! & he said ah it's your neves but take some

Benadryl you will be ok ...

He said besides how am I suppose to know that's really you??

He told me young people around here like to snot things

Can't help You. I immediately text beach girl (above) lol

I was in tears being talked to like that

Nerve/Anxiety welps.

These tariffs/supply chain issues are causing them not to receive product due to seizure/denial. At a certain point they gotta get there money somewhere. Just be careful who you buy from y'all
