Yes, I have been told the same thing and in my experience of having to deal with what I call "fire pain" since '06, all my many pain clinic docs are incorrect, imo. The main problem going on in cases like this is that the docs will not prescribe more adequate pain meds because of all the drug abusers and now the Feds won't let the docs properly help all of us suffering with severe chronic pain unless your a dying cancer patient. I'll call this and say this is my opinion, but I know it to be true, imo.
