/Dear Deb;  I received your kind msgs. to so many who posted, and I wanted to thank you, and everyone, for your kindness and support. 
 
I'm new to the group, and am desperately seeking a new Dr. to treat/manage my chronic, intractable pain. 
Quickly, I've had pelvic pain for the past 20 years (miscarriage complecated by a ruptured & hemorraging ovarian cyst, adhesions, then gangrene!, more adhesions, endometriosis), 10 surgical procedures (before I refused all surgery, as I only became worse each time). 
 
I've had a good, caring Dr. for the past 10 years, but now the Dr. no longer feels "the most competent, and concerned about being audited, and liability", and is cutting back my Rx and telling me to find someone else to treat me!  I was also told, during the same conversation, with the same Dr., that "you need *higher* doses, or stronger medications, like Methadone, to treat the pain you have".  The Dr. has no recommendations or referrals for me.  The Dr. also treats me for depression & insomnia.
 
I need a Pain Management Specialist in Northern California.  If possible, a Pelvic Pain Specialist.  I also need a GYN.  I do not have any insurance, am too disabled to work, and have been turned down for SSI Disability (I'm too depressed to try again w/o help).  ANY suggestions would be tremendously appreciated. 
 
My thoughts and prayers for your help and healing are with you all.  I wish you all the best, ATrent
