Q...I'm in so much pain, Why aren't you doing more for me...

Even though doctor knows you're in pain, he just might not have right treatment available to offer you. You may have to accept this, (But look at alternative forms of treatment as well).

Q...What about any new developments, there must be something to help me...

Ask to be kept informed, and tell your doctor you wish to be considered for treatment as soon as it becomes available.

Q...Can you refer me to anyone else...

Many people with chronic pain gain comfort from other therapies such as physiotherapy, psychologists, counsellors and specialist pain clinics. Ask your doctor to refer you to one of these, (It may help).

One last thing, don't ever assume it's not worth going back to your doctors because you have had your pain for ages, (especially if you never had a proper diagnosis), because it's never to late to get one...

Just think, a more careful investigation of your symptoms may lead to a more effective treatment.

Don't give up until you have exhausted every avenue (And hey even then don't give up)...

Hope this helps you for when you next visit your doctor...
