Phenomenal Doctor!

2.0

When I asked questions about the procedures that the doctor wanted me to do, I was not met with answers. I was met with frustration and irritation. I am extremely scared to do anything with my back area as I am fully aware that it can paralyze you, and I actually know somebody in my family that it did paralyze so it’s no surprise why I am so scared of it. And now I feel like in order to continue my pain management plan. I have to move forward with this procedure that I don’t wanna do because if I don’t do the procedure, then I cannot stay with my plan. There has gotta be some kind of laws against this. I’m told that the pain medication that she prescribed me is only for extreme amount of pain, but when you have three contusions and breakage on your spinal cord and a handful of other issues on your back, it’s natural and normal for them to be extreme amount of pain. I guess I just don’t understand what the stigma is on it or why she would give me medication. I can’t continue to take but works.
