> Hi Phillipa.
> no, not back pain but severe pelvic pain that i had since Dec. 2003. After gyn surgery and all kinds of tests done i was referred to a pain management dr who treated the pain with medicine for over a year, then became angry and accusitive when he found out i had a PTSD (maybe he knows i have DID also) dx. He forced me to get this nerve block, threatening not to prescribe anymore and the pain is way too severe to live in. Now i'm still in pain and so worried that the nerves to my right leg are damaged by the procedure and that's something that even medicine can't help. i hope that it's not permanent.

>Kerria,
Do you maybe have interstitial cystitis? I have heard that is terribly painful.
What is DID?
I can sympathize with you about doctors not believing your pain. I had a situation like that at one time and it made me feel terrible. You must be feeling frustrated and hopeless. Try to hang on - tell your doctor how you feel. Do your gynecologist and your pain management doctor talk to each other? Maybe they should discuss your case.
