    if i could afford to go see that doctor, i would be there in a second. i want try the stimulation unit, i learned about it months ago, but no one in ontario is using it on trials anymore for pelvic pain. one lady was and she is either no longer, or simply not taking any new people. and right now my pain management doc, doesnt seem to beleive my pain at all, and because of that i landed in the er a few weeks back during a flare up!
