Well folks, as you know from my posts, i have moved to the mountains in AZ.
i am getting reduced pains here. elevation works!
i went to a pain mgt doctor on the mountain and i found they are uneducated and uncaring.
the doctor said i was crazy and I was making up that i had my diagnosis. as he has never heard of small fiber neuropathy or the metal thing. even after he read my records and lab tests. even after my insurance told him what they were too. he threw me out of his office!
so now i will start withdrawals with only counseling from my insurance company.
the metal in the rehab will make it worse. my insurance said they will pay the $50,000
for me to go there if i want too.
they agree that the metal will make it worse too.
so of all things,they want me to get started ASAP on the medical MJ! they say it will help with the withdrawals and the pain im about to go through with it.
so i have 7 days worth of extended release 30 mg of morphine and 7 days of instant release
15 mg left.
i have been off the instant for two days now. tomorrow i will be cutting all the pills in half and only taking the 30mg once a day. the pain has started back to level 3/4 now.
once im out of the 30 mg pills.(cut in 1/2) i will either go through the really bad withdrawals or use the 1/2 pills of the 15mg until they are done. im hoping this will help.
im asking my metal research doctor for advise on this as well.
after 20 vials of blood and many vials of piss i sent him. he told me on Tuesday that he has found nothing that is causing me the metal reaction im having. he did all the metal testing and found im not allergic to any metals, just a reaction. he even tested for rocky mountain fever..can you believe that?
he did find that two of my numbers were very concerning and his words were there is something very seriously wrong in your body. you are very sick!
one number was to be no higher than 39. my number was 3,900.
the other number was to be no higher than 94,000. mine was 700,000.
this doctor is taking the money out of his own pocket to pay for all the research.
he has assembled a team of five doctors, money from his pocket. they will be reviewing my lab results and see if he can get me any help. he promised me that he will not give up on me.
as i have had many doctors and clinics throw the medical creed out the window it is refreshing to see a doctor(PHD) that cares so much.
im waiting on his reply to see if the morphine withdrawals will hurt/kill me with the numbers that i have. my insurance nurse and rehab counselor said that it can be very dangerous and life threatening. i have no worries. im going to make it through this like i make it through each painful day i have had for many years.
i would like to post here as i go through the withdrawals so you folks can learn from my experience.
i still say take the hard pain meds they do help a lot.
if anyone has any advise on how to help me for a change..lol please post or private message me.
thanks for your support in advance.
