Question by miscottmorg: Does anyone know of any pain management clinics in Baton Rouge or surrounding area take self pay patients?
I have a chronic back ailment and have lost my insurance after 6 years of treatment , mostly with medicine and physical therapy. I moved home to Louisiana after losing my inurance and going thru a divorce, finding myself with less money, alot of pain ,no help with the bills and doctors telling me to go to a pain clinic . The ones i have talked to so far are either too expensive (600 monthly) or insurance only.

One place you could check is thru the city health dept to see if they offer a free health clinic that also offers Pain Management services.
Another place is to check with some of the Medical Schools close by to see if they might be of some help.
I have the link to a site that may be able to help you find more information. It’s the link to a group for those with chronic pain. If you would like the information on that group please e-mail or IM me off site any time with the subject link to Chronic Pain Group so that I will know what it’s in regards to.

I work in Physical Therapy, so I am always with patients, or at my desk charting, or on the phone w/ patients or doctors, or office management.
When we are booked, I worry I won’t have enough time in the day to finish…this days work.
When patients cancel, there can be up to twenty minutes of downtime.
It’s nice to have a break, especially when none are scheduled. (This is how the clinic is set up to run, and I deal with it, because it gives me three days off.)
Not really enough time or desire to read a novel, or get involved w/ it. Out of work tasks tend to involve more time that allowed, or I just don’t want to due it at work.
I am seeking something to take my mind away for a bit, so I can be dedicated to the next patient.
