Hi Tish,
I think your doctor is full of it with the pain doctor stuff. I am on
pain management, due to the fact that at this time I am not seeking
another surgery to releive pain from adhesions. There are some doctors
who follow different methods of pain management, and it is up to you to
find one that works for you. If you would like to speak to me about
this I would be more than willing to explain what I went through, and do
today to make it through the day.
