> Thank you, Emme, so much for your responding to me in this struggle.
I hear(read) how completely frustrated and desperate you are.
> Yes, i've had a lawyer. It's almost five years since i filed for disability.
Wow. 5 yrs. Was this lawyer any good? Also, has your situation worsened enough to strengthen your case?
> i do say i'm in terrible pain and try to reason with dr - who gives meds that don't work- actually they do work badly- not cover pain and leave me dangerously sedated.
> At least it's something or i'd be screaming.
>
> The dr just keeps saying in response to my desription of pain "You don't have a diagnosis."That is totally unconscionable.
> There are so many tests that i've had - so many- abnormalities are found but the drs don't see how it can cause the pain that it does. They write that in my records and the dr reads it back to me.
>
> We get no where with this dr.
> I'm afraid that these records will follow me to what ever place, hospital, university hospital that i go next.
>
> i went to Johns Hopkins.... went to the Un of MD .... I went to the Mayo Clinic(hematology, gyn and pain medicine).It sounds like you've done all the sensible things when you meet with them. It does sound very scary.
> ..... i wish i could get a new identity to get away from the medical records. Drs have written horrible things about me- because they see that i 'say' i have pain but there appears 'no reason'. To them it means hypochondia or drug-seeking. What else could it be?
> Thanks for trying to encourage me. i so need to have a new identity.I'm sorry I don't have more concrete ideas. You need someone to believe you and something to go your way. I do hope the new doctor your mentioned in your other post can help you.
