I have heard that "Nothing can be done" garbage before. That taught me that I have to be my own best advocate. Keep looking! Pain mangement is a good place to start. Don't let one doc tell you "there's nothing to be done". If I had listened to the two orthopedists who told me that 7 years ago, I don't know where I would be today. Docs are often overworked or just don't want to take the time to go the extra mile. Hang in there!
