I decided...
I decided to look at all the blog posts i have written and kept some, but got rid of most. Why? They were not conducive to what i feel this blog should be. i have left some rants on here and all the poems i put on here. This is how the blog will be looking I hope from now on...
I am still going to be posting about my troubles with the doctors who decide who I am when they have only seen me a few times.
This is the one thing I had a deal with with a pain doc. I had trouble with a pain medication patch I was using. it started to cause rashes by the site of the patch and blisters in the inside of the patch. i had called the doc and twice was told he would get me in early. This past Thursday I reached my boiling point in how I was treated by the staff. I have a disease that will not get better. it can probably be maintained if i get the right doctors to maintain the degeneration in my back and neck. I have asked to be seen for an earlier appointment due to the problem with the medication side effects myself since i was not called. I was to absolutely not i had to wait til my appt date. If you are in pain and have been in pain to the point of crying you get that I needed to be seen to rework the pain management of my pain. Well..needless to say no one should be made to feel inferior by the staff or the doctor. I am changing doctors. I will keep on going until i get a doctor who actually understands and gives a damned about the pain issues without treating me like I am a pariah or crazy. If you have been in pain you know it can mess with the emotions a whole lot. It did for me. i felt belittled and looked down upon. Onward i go to try again. I am looking for a neuro doc to maintain my neck and back degeneration to keep me out of surgery to the best of what I can do and afford.
This is to the people who think that people who are in pain are addicts. Not all are, some do get to the point it happens. Not all do. I am not of those people who like the pain relief and not the high. The high feeling is temporary for me, but the pain relief is not. The FDA is trying to do right by pain medication, but neglect to care about the fact they knew it before and now they are cracking down. There are medications needing to be put through trials again for the simple fact that medication is a crap shoot in the first place. It has been told and there are warnings about the addictiveness of the pain meds. I have also seem psych meds being used in such that way as well. some do the same thing. if you do for one you do for others. Basically in ending this part...Not everyone gets addicted. The ones that do are not being monitored at first when it starts to show. If they were the doctors would have stopped the medication. Some cannot have them stop for the pain is real and it is harsh. Addiction needsto be looked at more closely to see the risk factors for this abuse of pills or illegal drugs. Not saying it will help, but who knows.
Doctors now more than ever treating patients with disregard when it comes to pain and mental health issues. it is sick and disgusting to see this happen to people all over. not being treated fairly and getting looked at differently, besides some of them treat you poorly just for being with less money. (opinion on last one) if they would treat people better they would get better responses from the patients most likely. Not everyone will be all good and happy, but we just want to be treated with respect.
Done with that...Good side of it is that there are many doctors out there who do give a damned and when wee find them we keep them. There should be more looking into the doctors who have conduct problems with patients and they need to be trained on the oath one more time more thoroughly. The oath is not there for fun.
