A member asked:
So when going to the dr i just tell them i have pain? or do i ask for something specific?

Be specific : Tell them where you are having pain. When it began and how it happened. Tell them how often you have the pain. What makes it worse and what makes it feel better. Tell them what you have done to try to feel better.

Do not: ask for specific medications such as asking for narcotics.
