    Pain Diary

    All excellent suggestions.

    Patients should advocate for their care. In fact, insurers are more likely to listen to patients than doctors. Yes, it’s true!

    So make a big stink about your situation. Have your doctor do a primary and secondary peer review. Write letters to your congressman, the Insurance Commissioner for your state, and whichever congressman sits on that committee. Write public reviews. Better business bureau. Yelp. Whatever it takes.

    It is horrible that pain control is considered not indicated. It’s just not true.
