@leigho55 Sorry for the break but my dog wanted to go out and I had to let her go or she might have gone inside!! You have a lot of pain and not much luck with doctors. I have been to Mayo's before and they were very good. Sometimes it is just finding the right doctor. I suffered with sciatic nerve pain from a back injury for years. Then one day while seeing a neurologists for another problem I asked about my back and the sciatic pain, he pulled up an old MRI and suggested I try a muscle relaxer when the pain hit. I already had a muscle relaxer so I tried it and what do you know it worked!! My sciatic pain went away after a hour or so. It was just by chance and desperation that I asked this guy about it. You see you just need to keep trying to find things that might work, and keep asking.
I do not know where Jacksonville is, but Mayo's has clinics in other parts of the United States so there maybe one closer to you if you checked. You can also talk to Mayo's finance center to see if they know of any financial aid you might be eligible for or you can check with your state rehabilitation office and your local hospital to see if they have any person who can advise you about other financial resources.
I do know you need to keep looking for what you need and asking anyone that might know because the answer to your problem could only be one question away, and you will not know unless you ask. Good Luck. 19lin

@19lin. Appreciate your input but this is more than just trying a muscle relaxer. Been there done that. If you read my thread from the very beginning you might see what I am saying differently. I am in more pain now than yesterday. Every day its getting a bit more unbearable. I am not in enough pain to get any type of help from the state. Why? because my Doctors are not putting in my medical notes that I am in chronic pain. No one wants to be involved. So I am being pushed aside with still no answers. I am stuck right now and I am angry and this is my venting place right now. (Sorry) You all are the only ones listening. It all revolves around money doesn't it. So sad. I am one in millions who has a medical problem and I know I am far from disabled but I am in a great deal of pain and after 14 months my Doctor's have stopped trying or helping me pursue. If I win the lottery I will be on the first plane to Dr.Adil Bharuccha in Rochester who @hew told me to see. My lower back has been a problem lately and right sided leg pain again. I know it all ties in with this damaged muscle/nerve issue. Thanks for your input. Everyone's!

@leigho55 You brought up one thing, ask the doctors to enter in your record that you are having strong pain or are reporting strong pain. Sometimes they will do this if you ask. It helps if you have a reason for asking. In my case, I needed it for documentation for benefits and in most cases they entered it in. If they object then ask them for an objective pain measure, of course, there is no FDA approved pain measuring system and if they refuse then they are saying they do not believe you have pain, which could be a good reason to ask for a transfer to a different doctor.
I wish I knew something that might help you more. Another thing I learned from others is ask the doctor what they would do in your place or ask how you can make things better. Some times they will have good suggestions. Good Luck. 19lin

I am working very hard on getting help to continue my insurance. Something very wrong is happening. Last night trying to sleep was the worst I have ever experienced so far. I cannot lay on my back to sleep the pressure from my tailbone was so bad. I could not sleep on my stomach because the pain radiated deep into my right pelvic floor area that I have been talking about. This is for sure nerve pain out of control. Besides the deep muscle pain now my back is getting weak and so sore. I have asked a couple of my Doctors what would you do if this happened to your wife? sister? mother? and I get blank stares. No one wanted to be involved. What kind of Doctor's do this? Leave a patient who is progressively getting deeper into pain because what is damaged inside her is not being addressed properly. I am ranting again. I have a lot of calls to make this week but I don't think I am going to get anywhere. Thank you again for listening.
