My pain

Hello
I have had migraines for over 10 years and have tried several treatments. My doctor wants me to do botox but I don't want to try it so she got mad at me and ask what can I do for you now. I asked for a refill on my pain medicine and she said she could no longer prescribe it to me. So I don't know what to do about this. If I should continue to see her or not.
I also have fibromyaliga and is in pain from that. I have a family doctor who is a lifesaver. I also have other medical issues and can no longer work. I have been trying to get my federal disability, I was denied and now working with a lawyer to get it and have to go to court.
I hate being in pain everyday and people don't understand our pain. I want to do more than stay in bed everyday but I can't work. I know we all have pain and our own story. It good to have a support systems that helps.
There is more I could say but I will stop here. If there is anyone who share the same issues please respond or comment on my post.
