Tips for working with your doctor to help pain

In regard to PAs, I get examined at a pain management clinic which has two pain doctors. Unfortunately, they have probably hundreds of patients so there are a number of PAs on board and, as a long term patient, they are whom I mostly see at my appointments. My pain issues have been with me for close to twenty years and every year it seems that more PAs are involved at pain management centers as well as at all the other doctors offices at which I’m seen. I’m continually praying that one of these days my doctors and PAs will come across a way to cure my pain.

Thought you were at pcp office. My mistake. I see a PA at my pain Mgt. Only see doc if you are getting a procedure. It’s a racket!! Plus I know my doc 18 years! So next week when I’m on the table in my rear end is in the air for an epidural, I’m gonna start asking him questions about what’s going on. The man is extremely intelligent.

Where is your pain, and do they have any idea of maybe why?
