Tired of the fight for treatment/DIC & chronic pain

@cb772 You are in constant pain, experiencing significant mobility issues, and not receiving needed medical equipment. Due to this you are feeling hopeless. At this time do you feel you can keep yourself safe?
It's important that you receive needed assistance. I'm wondering if you are connected with any disability services, social workers, or county workers at this time?

@erikas . Thank you for your post. I'm safe as long as stay seated in my recliner. I have Medicaid social worker who checks on me monthly. I finally have a psychiatrist & therapist I like, but their company will probably be dropping my medicate company next month. I've contacted AARP, my county Council on Aging & Florida State resources but they don't have much to offer. I've been trying to get a motorized wheelchair for 2 years but my PC Dr can't seem to submit a proper RX for one. I'm fortunate that my best friend/brother (not related to me) lives with me, shops, cooks, etc for me, but he works so I'm alone during the day & he's stressed/short temper lately. I know he loves me but he's only 47 & could leave anytime he wants. I need to stay in our home because our fur & non-fur babies are my lifelines.
