I have had weeks and weeks of instills and they don't seem to be working this time around. In 2005-2006 I tried Elmiron and couldn't take it due to my IBS (severe diarrhea, nausea and vomiting). I then went to instills which I did for a couple months and they worked really well. Well the pain came back in August of this year and I have been getting instills since then. My urogyno has referred me to a pain clinic because she says "there's nothing more I can do for you." The pain clinics here all have a waiting list a mile long. I made an appointment last month and was able to get into one on Dec 19th. Great I thought. So Tuesday I had my intake interview which was an hour long phone call about what's going on with me. Now when I made this appointment last month I made sure and asked "Do you accept XXXX insurance." Yes they said. So I get a message when I get home tonight (of course it's Friday and I can't call the office back) that I need to call them asap because there is a problem with my insurance. Are you freaking kidding me?? I asked up front, I had my intake appointment and my appointment with the pain doc is Wednesday and NOW there is a problem with my insurance? If I have start all over and wait another month to get into another pain clinic I'm going to be so ******. I'm in pain. I'm sick of being sick. I'm exhausted in every way. I even have what I think is Shingles now that just came out in the last 2 days. My body is WORN OUT.
