I can't afford brand-name medication. Maybe when I am on full medicaid.
He wouldn't give me BT--has not heard of that for pain. He did agree to raise my M.S. Contin to 180. . . 60x3.
My rheumatoid factor came back as 87, almost four and a half times the max. normal range. So maybe the rheumatologist he is sending me to will have a better idea of how to treat my pain. I am pretty bummed about the RA. From all I've read on it, the blood test seems to have been no mistake. My grandfather has it, too. And unlike those that get it when they are 60 or something (I'm 27), my prospective quality of life is pretty bad.
