Insanity
Is it normal to be dismissed from a practice because you are saying you are in a lot of pain / more pain but not doing their surgeries? I even told them I’d do one of them (epidural) but I got sick. I was genuinely planning to do it though. They sent me a dismissal letter out of nowhere and I was shocked. Nobody warned me and when I called for questions about it nobody called me back. The letter confirmed that I did not fail a drug test. It said I “did not follow the policies” and I think it’s because I didn’t do the surgeries yet, even though that’s not abusing a policy. I feel dehumanized and scared about my future lack of treatment. The secretary for my future pain doctor visit says they don’t give medication at the first visit and how it’s just a consultation. Am I supposed to go cold turkey for a month? For reference, I am on oxy ir 10mg x4, but I told my pain dr this new medication doesn’t help as well as morphine 15 ir x4, which I’ve been on for years. The dr before even gave me 30mg ER x2 but the pain clinic after has a mme limit. I was struggling even with the ER, and I’m so undermedicated because simple tasks are hard or impossible. I make noises sitting down or getting out of a chair for example. I wish the DEA stopped abusing me and my health.
