My current doctor, although he gave me the diagnosis, does not believe in it or help in any way. I need a new medical doctor who believes in fibromyalgia and me. My neurologist is wonderful, but not my regular doctor.
Check out to see if you can go to a pain clinic. They deal with this condition quite often and can help you with certain meds that your primary can't prescribe regularly. They can also send you to pt or do some injections that may help you. I am proud of you for not sticking with such an icky doctor. There are great ones out there, don't despair.
Find an Integrative or Functional medicine physician. Or, if your insurance covers a naturopathic doctor, go that route. These types of dr.s are much mmore educated in chronic health problems and usually have much better treatment plans that are more helpful than harmful.
As you are in America could your health insurance provider help find a different doctor?
Hi hun itβs time to find another doctor!
Try to find a fibromyalgia support group in your local area and ask those people what doctor they go to ? I hope this helps ?
