Right now, I am seeing Clair Francomono.. I don't know what to do anymore because I've called her office twice so far and still have not gotten a phone call back, and I stressed to them last time I am in so much pain and have no idea what to do and just want her help..
Right now, she is not helping.
She is a great doctor for the personable aspect...but when it comes to pain control.. yeah....
I'm reaching the end of my rope, and don't know what to do.
I can't live with this pain forever..
I have tried Pain Management but no one has ever heard of EDS and if they have, they don't really do much for treating it.. I'm just done.
Sorry for the rant.
Does anyone suggest any new doctors in or very close to MD? And not Howard Levy..I have already been to him too...

Made an appointment in March for Doctor Levy.
I had a hard time with him because he hassled me about my weight but now that I lost a lot, and I am older I think I am ready to handle his blunt-ness.
I'll let y'all know how it goes!
Hope everyone is doing well!

Went to Dr.Levy. He seemed pleased that I came back and we are going to try to get back on track to helping my anxiety levels come down and to try to control my pain. He was actually quite pleasant this visit, so hopefully things stay the same! *Fingers crossed!*
