Subject: pain management
It been awhile since I have written since I have been trying to do
something about these adhesions. I had surgery with Dr. Gerhart in June and
I am right back where I started from. 4 1/2 hours of cutting and after he
filled me with fluid I feft good for about a week and a half and then the
same old stuff slowly started coming back and now its the same as before
with the additional soarness. I have been taking pain meds ever since and
now they want to send me to a pain management clinic. Can anyone tell me
what their experience has been or is with these clinics. I will try
anything but am still skeptical because I always believed you can sugar coat
the pain but it is never going to go away unless you get rid of the problem.
I am at my wits end again.
I will see Dr. Gerhart in two weeks, if I can last that long.
Jeanne
