HE might me another type of doctor, as in rheumotologist, orthopedic, neurologist, sleep specialist, psychiatrist plus pain management. Don't think the worse until you get it confirmed that he would rather you go to a different "pain" management doctor. He is treating you but may not have the nerve to suggest you get more or a different type of help. Could be he is unethical too and treating you when you "need" a different kind of help.
