@tigger1968 Good morning and welcome to MayoClinicConnect. We all volunteer on Connect to get and give information so you’ve come to the right place. I’m so sorry to hear about your difficulties with increased pain following Covid. And finding a good doctor is so important in pain management. I included a link to the Arthritis Foundation in Birmingham below. You might want to contact them and ask for help and advice. Tell them that you need to find a doctor and a pain management specialist near you. Can you do that?
I really hope you feel better soon. Please stay in touch and let us know what you learn. Becky
