Answers:

Good luck.

I've been suffering from the pain and numbness of DJD (and all of it's related conditions) for years now. It seems as if no doctors want to help and just end up passing the buck by sending you to other doctors.

They'll refuse to give you pain meds to adequately control your pain and then turn around and try to give you antidepressants when the pain causes depression. It doesn't make sense but that's the road you have ahead of you.

You're in for many years if not a lifetime of pain because apparently no doctors are compassionate about people with this condition.
