    I can definitely relate to the frustration of having pain from PMPS,LE and scar tissue adhesions. I was only able to find a pain clinic after I got fed up and went to a new internal medicine dr. The first order of business was to send me to a pain clinic. I NEVER feel like I am treated like a drug addict there. I do feel like that when I have seen other doctors. So many pill addicts and doctors that are either uneducated on pain, don't believe in chronic pain, etc etc. Some times I think I even let myself feel guilty like I am doing something wrong for taking pain medication long term.
