HEALTH INTERESTS:

Chronic back and hip pain

DRUGS I AM TAKING:

intrathecal morhine pump,  oral morphine,  percocet,  soma,  neurontin,  xanax, 

ABOUT ME:

I was divorced in 1998 after 30 years and 2 beautiful kids. I lived with a fellow for 12 years after that and we were raising his mentally challenged granddaughter (my idea). He passed away a year ago this week and I decided to continue raising her. She is 15 going on 5 and a handful. I have had 5 failed back surgeries, 2 failed hip surgeries and my pelvis broken in 3 places. I had a pain management doctor in FL. and moved to GA. August 1. I have called every pain doctor from Atlanta on up and not one of them will take over my case. So what am I to do? My pump alarm goes off every 30 days. I have an RN that comes to my home to administer the drug and care for the pump and a pharmacist, with the same company, that makes the prescription. Why can't I find a doctor to sign an order? It is not only frustrating, it is also frightening. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to find a doctor? Please write back even if it is to say no. Thanks for listening to this grumpy ol'woman
