YES.... My GP (an internal medicine doctor) writes out some of my Rx for Pain Pills for my RA - Fibro - Bursitis, and so does my Rheumy Doctor that I see every 6 months for follow up appointments.
I would suggest that you seek out a Pain Management Doctor if your own Family Doctor is not wiling to help you be comfortable.... and as any one with FIBRO knows - the pain is always there and there is no cure for it.
