Who in our nations Capitol can we contact to complain about the lack of medical knowledge, lack of successful treatment, the difficulty involved ingest tin disability, etc????
We can send man to the moon but there is no pain relief for PNE. Makes no sense int 21st century.
We need to spread the word-we need help

Your congress person maybe?
PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.

Yes I contacted my congress woman and she said there was nothing she could do!
Re: We need to spread the word-we need help
We need someone famous to get this and who would be willing to go public.

Disability is a separate issue but regarding research, chronic pain is a very difficult problem in general. Be it back pain, neck pain, or pelvic pain. It is not that there is some conspiracy to let us suffer.

2004 Headache in the pelvis clinic. Diagnosed with PNE by Drs. Jerome Weiss, Stephen Mann, and Rodney Anderson

I agree there is not a consipracy of any kind to let people suffer, I simply think many of us would simply like to see an increase in research (and research $$) put into chronic pain/neuropathic pain to help find more effective treatments.
PN started 2004 from fall. Surgery with Filler Nov. 2006, Dr. Campbell April 2007. Pain decreased by 85% in 2008 (rectal and sitting pain resolved completely), pain returned in 12/13. Pain reduced significantly beginning around 11/23.
