I hope you get the answer and it is horrible how sometimes we have to wait for an appointment. I'm sure you have tried to explain your pain level but maybe call them everyday to see if someone has canceled may help. Are there any other doctors who may be able to call this doctor to get you in any faster? Be the squeaky wheel.
