@daxel79 I hear you! My PM doc manages my pain pump and that's about it. The pump has not given me any pain relief in two and a half years(except for ONE DAY). I have practically begged him to look for something else to give me some help. But no. He lacks any empathy and refuses to reach out to colleagues for consultation because he knows just about everything. There are no other PM docs in the area that manage pain pumps so I am stuck.

I pressed the issue pretty hard , so did my wife. I did convince my PM doctor enough that he gave me a live XRay . Things are still up in the air but I am 99.99% sure my issue is the Stimulator.
I will have to make the decision soon because the longer I have it in the more scar tissue they will have to cut through. Hope you can find a more compassionate doctor, I feel for you.
