Why doctors don’t know about Chronic Pain
Doctor Furlan answers 9 questions that were sent by a group of patients in Ontario, Canada.
1. ALL of the participants agreed that your introductory video entitled « Chronic Pain » should be required viewing by all medical professionals....who should then in turn recommend it to their clients/patients. How can we make this happen?
2. How can I speak to my friends and family about my pain when they are generally not supportive?
3. How can I maintain intimacy with my partner when my libido is often wiped out by pain?
4. What can I do if my family doctor either doesn’t believe in chronic pain or doesn’t seem interested in learning about it?
5. What can I do to reduce the bias and stigma I encounter regarding my stable and successful opioid treatment for my chronic pain: a) in the emergency department when there for a new acute pain b) when my doctor is on leave or retires ? The opioid crisis has not been helpful to me in these regards.
6. In Ontario, how can I get a new doctor when I am deemed to be a “complex case”? (always rejected after the interview)
7. Topic: active versus passive treatment/ attitude. “I just want to find the right doctor who will know the right medicine to make this pain go away.”
8. What are your top ten best ideas/ suggestions for someone with chronic pain?
9. When using a multifaceted approach to chronic pain, how can I be sure what is working and what is not? Similarly, if I have been on a particular pain reliever or anti-inflammatory for years... is this safe for my kidneys/ liver—- how can I tell what is an acceptable level of risk?
