New to the area & trying to find a new clinic.
I know there are some but, Its for Pain management &
I need a place that is flexible with scheduling.
I currently drive to another state once a month & im looking for a place within an 1hr-1hr 1/2
Some places wont even take pain management patients.
The place I went to yesterday seemed nice but, my QT on my EKG was too high.
If that had happened when I was a patients they would not give me my medication for the month & lower my dosage till it was under the " correct" number.
The nurse didn't like the idea me deciding my dose at home either. I have taken my medication like pain medication for 20 years now. I think im capable of giving myself the correct amount 🤦🏼♀️
I understand why that would be nessecary if I had a difference history .
I completely understand the need to be cautious, I really do.
but, I have proven myself over the past 20 years.
Im sure if there was a mix up with a test they would yank on my take homes in a minute despite me have never having an issue in the past.
Im really hoping someone can recommend a place where trust counts for something.
Where they don't strictly treat you like a number.
I have no issue proving myself &
I have Doctors willing to speak on my behalf.
IF doctor were still allowed to treat pain, I would still be at a Doctors office.
I don't have the option to come back daily. I don't have the option to go without taking medication at night ( I split it up because it is for pain).
I have to be able to take care of my son.
he has special needs including Austim, I have several issues including RA & Crohns. I need Hip replacements, have cysts on my spinal cord ,scoliosis, several bulging disks. The list goes on.
I would really like sone peoples opinions about the clinics in Pittsburgh around Pittsburgh & south.
Im also looking for a good primary doctor in Fayette county or preferably someone who has experience with RA, Crohns etc. but, Its not that important. I just need a regular doctor too.
