Check out For Grace's November Story of the Month. Woman In Pain Stephanie Thomson had a successful performing career and was just launching a new tour when a dance injury left her with severe back pain. After surgery and several alternative therapies failed to give her relief, Stephanie found a medication that mercifully worked. Still, her doctors are hesitant to continue this regimen as they're convinced she's a drug seeker. As Stephanie continues to fight for the med that gives her quality of life, she shares, "I grow weary of looking for a doctor to meet my needs and stick beside me."
