I am in severe pain in my knee. I have been in pain a long time. I only recently got insurance so I went to the doctor to try to get it treated. He has put in for a referal to an orthopedic doctor. In the mean time I am in so much pain I just want to die. What should I do? I have tried so many NSAIDS and prednisone for the pain those things are not working. Am I a bad person that I want relief from pain till I can get this fixed?
