I don't have any great advice to give, but I am fed up with the current MD attitude of Gee, you're in pain? Yeah...hmm...guess you have to live with it...*shrugs* and walks out of the exam room.
Opiates not the best idea? Okay, so give those of us with chronic pain something to work with, don't just take away all hope.
An exceedingly frustrating situation. And given the issue, I certainly believe that you need and deserve pain relief. Just be smart about how you get it. I believe that asking your BI doctor is perfectly legit, given the situation.
