lettitia,
I am sorry to hear you are still having pain; this is definitely not normal. A doctor who dismisses your concerns should absolutely be fired, as Ross said. There is a certain arrogance among some physicians that is absolutely unacceptable, and sadly it is too common (there is even a name for it in the psychology literature). Get to another doctor who understands that pain is an indicator of something not right, one who will listen to you and treat your concerns with respect.
You didn't specify what kind of pain you are having. Did you have any kind of rehab program after surgery? Do you get daily exercise? Sometimes, the deconditioning of the body after surgery can cause aches and pains that can be remedied by physical therapy...but we are not doctors here, and you really need to get this evaluated by a good clinician.
Best of luck,
John
