Weather or not doctors are required to carry insurance, what happens when you do have a legitimate case for malpractice and the doctor says that they do not have insurance? Is there any recourse?

its been on my deck out in the weather for at least 19 years………… and finally took it all down wondering if we can just cut it up and burn it in a fire pit in my backyard……. thanks

I feel the pain in the lower curve of my back, right at the center of the curve. I don’t think I have a herniated disk and I’m not sure weather its a sprain, strain or fracture. It just feels like a dull pain and it isn’t excruciating but it bothers me throughout the day or if I suddenly turn. Please any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I live with almost constant pain since I was injured this year. It isn’t gut wrenching pain but more or less determined by weather and physical activity. I am trying to work through it but my future may be ruined if I over work my condition. It has changed my disposition and I find it difficult to smile. When it gets sore I tend to start guarding my injury. My OCPT has told me to work through it within my restrictions and my lawyer advised me to be prepared. I may end up losing my job very soon because of my limitations. They are starting to harass me at work.

I usually get one about once a year for terrible pain in my lower hip/back when the weather gets cold. I got a shot for pain last Friday, ran a marathon (my first) on Saturday and now the pain is back. Should I tough through it or call the doctor?

Right now i am looking for any medicine or over the counter cocktail that I can take to relieve severe back-pain that is related to my Scoliosis? I like so many others do not have health insurance and do not want to go the illegal route. The weather here in KC makes it the pain unbearable and today I am just looking for anything. The ibuprofen that I am taking is barely doing anything? Any suggestions out there?

After many sinus surgeries my husband now has Trochlear Nerve damage which causes severe and constant (24/7) headaches. He has tried EVERY medication the E.N.T. & Neurologist could come up with but none have helped. Has anyone ever had this problem or know of anyone else who has? He has used every migraine headache Rx and even antidepresants, but none have helped.
To answer the last responders question: My husband had 4 or 5 sinus surgeries that all went well until this last one. Two days after the surgery was done he began to have severe pain above his eye where the nerve is. He was tested for allergies and found to have none (although for over 10 yrs his doctors said he had seasonal allergies and have been treating him for them!). He has had this headache since November 2005. We have tried to keep tack of the headaches to see if weather has any effect on them; changes in season; foods, etc., but it seems that none of those things makes the headaches less or worse than normal. Where exactly is the pain you are having? I would like to discuss this with you as you seem to have almost the same problem. You can email me at Wzardoz1939@yahoo.com if you like.
