Dealing with pain anxiety depression
Hi I have just seen your email. It sounds as if you have had a very difficult time with the medical community in Florida. If you have been consulting with pain specialist physicians, it is not too surprising that they resist prescribing pain and anxiety meds along with antidepressants. Perhaps a psychiatrist might be more cooperative; also you might find a clinical psychologist who works with pain and related issues (although psychologists generally do not prescribe medications). Regarding Cannabis (which could be useful for you), it would be necessary find a doctor who will prescribe it for medical usage (if that option is available in your state). I hope that you can soon find some support and relief. READ MORE
