Janice -- Where are you located? I know there are a lot of bad drs out there, or just plain insensitive ones. I have had to hunt around, but I have a wonderful primary dr and a wonderful obgyn. Both have no problem prescribing narcotic pain relievers for me. I get regular refills of percocet for a back/hip problem, and Lortab and Ultram for my endo. They are able to monitor my intake by how often I request a refill, and I have never been questioned on my usage. Maybe one of us that has had a good experience with a dr that helps us manage our pain can refer you to someone in your area.

I don't think any doctors really understand or want to understand our pain. I have the same problem with all the doctors I've seen, even my new pain specialist. I'm only 19 years old and I have severe endo and severe PCOS. I have so much pain every single day. They don't want to help me, it seems impossible, I can't get a hysterechtomy and I'm supposdly to young to be on a lot of narcotics. I went to my new pain specialist the other day for the first time, he straight up told me that addiction is in question, because i'm only 19, I started crying and he told me i need to see a phsyciatrist whatever thats supposed to mean. whatever it's hard to be so young and deal with this. The pain is enough, and having to defend yourself against the people that are supposed to help you makes it extremely stressfull, and they oviously don't care ! to see it that way. Janice
