Things to know when you complete the treatment

Upon completion of treatment at the AEPMU for pain doctor will do the following:

  1. Hand you the discharge pamphlet
  2. Write a letter to the doctor who refer you us and to your family doctor. In this discharge letter, your pain doctor will summarize the pain problems we tried to help you with, the treatments we offered and the outcomes you achieved. Your pain doctor will add also some recommendations as for future management of your pain should it increase after discharge.
  3. Give you a prescription for the meds you take valid for a period until your own doctor continues the treatment.

 

In the event of presenting with a relapse of the pain that we treated at the AEPMU we ask you to do the following:

  1. Ask your own doctor to manage this pain with his/her best medical knowledge
  2. You doctor can contact us to seek for some advice to help you with this pain relapse
  3. Eventually your doctor may ask us to see you again in clinic for a re-assessment of your pain problem.
