Physiatrist is a good idea. A physical therapist cannot diagnose or prescribe treatment, he can only follow the dr.'s orders. (However, a good PT can tell the doctor what he finds, and make suggestions.) Actually, a sports-medicine doc (usually an orthopedist) would also be able to analyze body mechanics and help you find the cause of your pain. I would be leery of anyone wanting to treat me unless I had some kind of working diagnosis thing going.


DON'T get me started on HMO's and prescription coverage!!! But most plans have some contingency for off-formulary drugs, even if it's just partial coverage requiring paperwork for pre-authorization.

Anji is right...drugs don't solve the problem, they just temporize. At your age, you should not be resigned to a lifetime of Vioxx in order to play the clarinet.
