I have not seen a pain specialist But I have a Fibromyalgia Dr I travel 4 hours each way to see. Dr Loyalty trained under Dr Teitelbaum and the SHINE method. It made a world of difference for me. They also suggest a gluten free, low sugar diet, and combine herbals with western medicine. There is a lot of blood work that the treatment goes by because hormones, vitamin levels , heavy metals all can contribute to Fibromyalgia, CBS, agent orange ,adrenal fatigue and other chronic diseases.

Good morning! I have seen my rheumatologist for years for fibro and she has helped me. But the best thing that I have done is cut out lactose and gluten from my diet and just met with a new doctor last week. He is an MD but also practices functional medicine. I will be starting a process to heal my digestive track which is were 70% of this stuff starts. He feels that once that happens that my symptoms will likely go away. I can say that I haven't felt so hopeful in years that things will get better. The doctors name is Dr Nathan Morris in Oxford Ohio. Maybe you could call his office and ask for a referral closer to you. It's worth a try. Hope you begin to feel better soon and you find a healthcare provider who will listen and understand what you're going they. Have a blessed day

Yes I was see a dr from pain management who diagnose me with having fibro. Put me on lyrics which I found for me didn't work.

I love my functional medicine doctor. First person who has really helped me
