How Do You Find Real Help?
PCP's won't prescribe pain medication but they also won't order tests that would help diagnose what's causing the pain. I don't know what to do. We've seen 2 doctors in less than a month and they both said exactly the same thing.
My Mom hasn't had her 2 brain aneurysms checked since 2022 and she's been having severe headaches for 2 years and no one will order an MRI/MRA. We got told no again today. She said to wait until the neurologist appointment in January 2027. Now she has zero pain medication and is in constant pain from her head to her toes 24/7 and can barely use her left arm. She's constantly wincing in pain. I'm suffering watching her suffer. I feel like I'm in an alternate reality where everyone is like those emotionless pod people from that movie.
Any advice on how I can get my Mom's condition diagnosed before next year so she can get on the right treatment plan and we can hopefully fix whatever is wrong or at least manage it?
Thank You. Please be kind. I am an emotional wreck right now. My Mom is holding up better than me.
