There are bound to be others who are or have been in your situation. You need to know how to work the system, who to appeal to. Involve the doctor in a ton of paperwork, make a first class nuisance of yourself. Join a group of others with similar problems. On your own you are easy meat, as part of a group things are different. Anyway best wishes. :hf: [/quote] I knew a guy who always went to the VA for his treatments of anything. He began to have some serious problems with his heart and they gave him such a runaround. He went to the military base here and got the help that he needed. [/quote]

I am a disabled VET 60%. I live with cronic pain daily.
I take only what I am perscibed which is nothing.
2 15 mg of extended release morphine twice daily and 30 PERCS a month for breakthrough pain when I need it. They moved me from one doctor to the next and suddenly want to cut the percs and evening morphine...thats it. 1 morphone a day with maloxacam.
NOW...They drug test the hell out of me and I am always clean, yet I feel like I am treated like some fucking JUNKIE. Whatever happened to working with the patient.
I mean I am fine with trying to come down, but it has to be comfortable with me...not HIM telling me what kind of pain I go through in a day. This is FUCKED UP.
They wonder why millions of our vets commit suicide!!! when they dont listen to thier patients.
I almost want to tell them..OK MOTHERFUCKER, when I BLOW MY HEAD OFF or start taking HEROIN because you cut me off WITHOUT working with me like I am some junkie, MAYBEE then maybee they can have that haunt them.
FUCK YOU VA!!!!!!
Thanks for the quality medical care us vets get for serving our counrty..
For any other vets out there going through the same crap..
GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!
