The more I read about helping the patient to be comfortable, free from pain and anxiety in this country , the more I distrust not only the doctors but the general and all encompassing FDA totally. Let them jump inside my body after 35 years of debilitating physical and anxiety ridden lyme that attacks the neurological system with late stage infectious disease of Lyme disease, and “they” will be the first to beg for relief. It’s the doctor and patient who agree upon a plan and if that doesn’t work move on to a pain relief doctor with all your documentation you have to show character analysis of non abuse and the need for reasonable and continued treatment with low dose pain control and anti anxiety meds. We are not stupid and abusive people - we are patients in pain for whatever reason the origin is.
