My Dad is in terrible back pain. He has spinal stensosis, and 2 slipped discs. HIs Parkinsons keeps him moving so he's jarring his back over and over again
He had an visit with a pain doc for the first time in 2 years scheduled for Monday, but he just got a call. Since this visit is on his medicaid, and not the VA, they cancelled his appointment.
My Mom tried to help explain, she was told "I'm talking to Him, not you"
She finally said the doctor must be paid, and cancelled his appointment.
The lack of compassion is both disconcerting and shocking.
@gemswinc All I want is for him to get some help. He's been calling looking for another appointment, but the fastest they can get him in is mid October.
That's a long time to wait when you can't sleep because of the pain.
