My pain management doctor was a life saver for me too. She never doubted my pain. She said that there was a lot we don't know about pain, and why some people have MRI findings that look awful but have no symptoms, and why some have MRI findings that show very little yet they have terrible pain. But, she never once doubted that my pain was real. For that I am grateful.
