I am seriously considering changing doctors too. I just came back from the ER, couldn't handle the pain. The sores under my arm are infected. She kept saying no and wouldn't give me an antibiotic. She is a nurse practioner. I am not happy. I know when something is infected, throbbing horrible pain. What would you do?
Thanks! I am so skeptical of all those medications.
I have been going to a pain clinic for my current and long suffering digestive issues. They have been trying a lot of things, including options, which I disliked immensely. I am now on Lyrica, which seems to have helped a little with my body wide pain, including PN. Be careful who you go to, as too many of them go right to the "big guns", meaning strong meds that might help you, but have troubling side effects. I would definitely investigate this type of care! 😊
I am going to be 82 next month. I can't swallow more pills, the stomach says no. No point in adding another doctor to the list!
Get another opinion and call your dermatologist. Maybe they will prescribe you something
You're wise to be skeptical.
