Update: I am still…read moredealing with Restless Leg Syndrome that was set off after Dr. Netzel thought he could fool me into believing that the catheter coming from my pump was located in the wrong place. My new doctor had me get an updated MRI, something Dr. Netzel never bothered to do. Had he, he would have found out that the Degenerative Disc Disease has progressed further down my back and has now destroyed the disk between L5 and S1. And there's further disk failing in my neck. Dr. Netzel came off as a cocky pain specialist that wasn't interested in listening to anything the patient had to say. His ego needs to be seriously deflated. Having the total of "Doctor" doesn't make you always right. I'm aware that the overall purpose of the surgery he wanted to do is to reduce the amount of morphine I required to get pain relief. The problem is, WHY WOULD I POSSIBLY CARE, especially when the damage I suffered is permanent, so the morphine will be required throughout my entire lifetime. Thus, I don't care if I'm addicted to morphine or not. It's a moot point for me. I'm not willing to risk having an infection that could cause paralysis or death just to save a couple of grams of morphine. The potential for further complications is just far too great. I'll gladly take the surgery when it's actually essential. This most definitely isn't essential. It's much more about feeding a doctor's ego and wallet from my insurance company than actually doing something beneficial for me. Don't assume that just because someone has the total of "Doctor" that they're actually working for your best interest. Do your own research. There's a ton of information readily available on the internet. Because ultimately, YOU ARE THE FINAL AUTHORITY WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR HEALTH. The doctor will certainly make suggestions to you, and often times demands, but the final decision is your's. I strongly encourage you to steer well clear of Doctor Netzel. There's plenty of good pain doctors around that you shouldn't have to settle for the first one your insurance company sends you.

They're tapering me off my current medication and advising me to find another doctor.

I suffer from osteoporosis, broken vertebrae (T4 and T5), a fractured femur, and sarcoidosis affecting my lungs and skin. After managing my pain since 2015, I now feel criminalized.
