I have an issue where I wake up often(up to five times a week) with a painful pripism. I'm looking for a doctor to talk to about fixing this problem for good. A serious answer is requested and haste is more than welcome. My life does depend on this as I can find answers Ans refuse to put up with it much longer.

We can't diagnose over the computer. I'm not sure where you are located, but someone will figure it out. Hopefully, sooner than later.

You haven't been referred to a urologist?

Do you smoke pot? Use cocaine?

I don't touch hard drugs though weed was used. A doctor already rulled that out as a cause when I stopped smoking and it kept happing. They have thoery upon thoery and I've seen a couple of urologists about it. The problem is finding someone who has seen this before.

Why "seen this before"? There is a treatment for it. Why isn't anyone treating you?

Various treatments, unless the doctors are not taking you serious and don't believe you have a problem.

The injections are only a temporaryfix they only work the once. That's why I go to the er every other morning to get the injections. I'm looking for someone who has an idea for a more permanate fix so I don't have to do that so much. I can't afford that and its not pleasant

When you post, give all these details about doctor visits. It would be helpful.
