It’s been so long since you had a day without pain that it's hard to remember what that feels like. You dread getting out of bed in the morning; it’s been months since you slept thru the night. It hurts to get up from a chair or climb stairs. If a winning lottery ticket were on the ground in front of you, you couldn't bend down to pick it up.
Sound like you? You are not alone. Millions of chronic pain patients are misdiagnosed every day, and it's costing us millions in lost income and a poor quality of life.
MEDICAL RESEARCH SHOWS THAT ASKING ALL THE RIGHT QUESTIONS GIVES A MORE ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS THAN A BRIEF OFFICE VISIT, PHYSICAL EXAM, AND MEDICAL TESTING. DOCTORS HAVE LIMITED TIME AND MAY BASE THEIR DIAGNOSIS ON A TEN MINUTE CONSULTATION AND LAB TESTS. IF YOUR PAIN CONTINUES DESPITE PRESCRIBED THERAPY, YOU MAY HAVE BEEN MISDIAGNOSED. OUR PAIN DIAGNOSIS TEST CAN DETERMINE THE REAL CAUSE OF YOUR PAIN.
