Hi.

I'm so sorry for you.

I've had my Chronic Pain since 2005 following "Steriotactic Radio Surgery"

Sorry but the Chronic Pain is nothing I like to "boast about"

Yes I have also got the "T-Shirt" when it comes to GP's & Pain Clinic's.

Too date they have only increased my "Pain Levels" "Big Time"

Steve.

I'm afraid I don't rate pain clinics. Your GP will be the one prescribing all your Meds and referral to physio etc. I am fortunate to have a great working relationship with my GP. I suggest you build one with yours or change Dr.
