Kris Ann, I know what you mean about pain medicine. I haven't found a Dr., yet, even a pain specialist ( the one I went to was recommended on the Action Pain Web site, He didn't know anything about adhesions), he just prescribed PT for me! I haven't had a descent's night sleep in almost three years! And my relatives are complete idiots,( & my employer) they think because I had surgery July 29, that I am cured! The surgery did not relieve my pain ,in fact, I feel like it just stirred up a hornet's nest. I guess I should fall to the floor & scream @ the top of my lungs in order for people to understand that I am in pain despite looking & acting normal! I have an apt. with my surgeon on Mon. because my employer is threatening to cut off my disability if I can't prove I'm in pain. As far as I know they have NOT invented a pain meter, yet! So, I really empathize with you. Good Luck! Take Care, Rita in AZ --- Naildoc84@aol.com wrote: > Wow, > I posted, but I don't think I Posted enuf, maybe I > did.
