I have found that making your situation seem worse than what it really is will really make the doctors jump to their feet. Tell them that on a pain scale of 1 to 10, she says the pain is pretty much a 10 and unbearable. There are some other tricks of the trade but I can't think of anything at this moment that would apply to your situation. Dealing with doctors can always be a hassle until you make them realize that you mean business and there's a possible lawsuit hanging over their heads.
