The doctor initially did a spine injection which was good for a short time. It is extremely difficult to find doctors, even my primary care doc did not want to help. From what I have been reading my numbers are low. This pain doc has placed my life in danger because I am scheduled for major open heart surgery next week and my pain med is severely inadequate. This pain doc has been milking the bills, it’s not Medicare or private insurance but a workmans comp settlement fund so he gets a lot higher rates. My previous dose was 1.25 mg a day and he increased it to 1.39 mg a day, a 11.7 % increase and he thinks it’s too much. I have a bolus device but would not let me use it a lot of times. What state are you located in?
