From what I have read, the subject of pain is glossed over when a lot of these doctors went to school. Central Sensitization Syndrome is something they never heard or read about. It seems only the very brightest who have gone on to advanced studies have some knowledge of this subject. Strange and frustrating that these people stop educating themselves after they start practicing. The lack of time is the excuse I get mostly. It is a real problem for them in the sense that medical facilities and insurance companies want that practice of pushing as many patients as possible in a day through their doors. 15 minutes a person is a stupid idea and extremely harmful. You can’t make a diagnosis of any real value. If you have something like I have, it is deadly. The constant need to prescribe a med is also bad. Most of that crap is on the pharmaceutical companies need for money. All that said, doctors are still responsible for what they do. In the case of prescribing me Fentynal, they relied on the advice of a pharmaceutical rep as to how great this crap was. Those people are sales people with little to no education in medicine. Doctors are suppose to read about the medications they use on their patients. I wouldn’t have used that on a chronic pain patient. The original intent for that med was after major surgery and for terminally ill cancer patients. As for after surgery, the use was for no longer than 5 days. A large part of the blame is on the AMA and the FDA for approving the use. To me this whole thing is about greed!
