I agree we are 3 years in my son is 22 providers say it’s depression not pain. My son is barely hanging to life because we get road blocks in his care. What options outside of primary care have others used and been successful? He doesn’t sleep because of the pain in his head with screws and plates. He gets frustrated and angry wishes to just be happy and normal again.
