Go to see your MD: Call your hematologist. If you can tolerate your pain - you can wait until you go to see your hematologist. You should follow up regularly with your hematologist and follow the recommendation to prevent you from getting too many crisis. If your pain is so unbearable then you should seek help- then you may want to go to urgent care or er- if you wish.
