Asking for input/advice
This latest leg pain and back is still severe pain but it seems to be taking a lot longer to get the pain to ease . The pain is lasting longer at high intensity. My doctor recommended ER visit yesterday when I updated on my condition. At the time it wasn’t any worse than what I described in the visit. I don’t think that they really understood the severity of the pain and the crippling effects, mainly because for whatever reason my pain wasn’t more than about a five until the x-rays. Then the pain level began to climb dramatically .
The closest ER I have a big distrust of . My experience with them leads me to believe that they would read my doctors notes and probably prescribe pain medication and send me out the door and back to my doctor.
I despise medications , the majority of them have never helped me and I just don’t like pills.
I am requesting input on this, I don’t trust my decision making, I also have the other issue of nobody in my support side. So getting released could be an issue being over 25 miles from home. What should I do?
