Reading upside down !!!

Sunil, I am so sorry this happened to you, and I can hear how unhappy it made you, but I am confused - is this recent? I thought things were going better for you now?

Something that crossed my mind - I don't know whether you've had the opportunity to see a psychologist for help with pain management? - I know how much I have been helped by my sessions with a psychologist, she really turned things around for me. A problem like ours has both physical aspects and psychological ones, as does any chronic pain condition, and help can - and should - come from both directions.

I use many of the CBT techniques that she taught me, every day. Without this, I wouldn't be functioning nearly as well as I am. And I know I can go back to see her again, if I need to - this is a good thing to know, that the support is always going to be there. I would wish the same for you.

wow, that is heinous!

I want to go punch them out!

you are so right... you have to do your own research and guide them to get them to do what you want them to do... the idiots with egos who know nothing are too ashamed to admit it...

I am so sorry you went through that... angry you went through it. people should be better humans than this.

thank God for the experts, the internet, research, and community! and God's Grace guiding us when we are lost beyond belief.

Sunil,

Your story about the urologist giving you Lithium was heartbreaking. WHAT A QUACK!!!

I'm so sorry.

There indeed are doctors out there that care about their patients. They are VERY few and far between, however.

That's why HOPE is here, so we can help each other find them all!

You are in Australia, correct? Have you seen Prof. Vaincaille? I have heard he is very interested in PNE. Please excuse me if you have already been to him.

Best luck,
