Have you tried asking them to write it down, then you can take your time to look over it and come up with a list of questions/terms you need explaining better?
Also if you're experiencing pain, it sounds like you really need to speak with them about it to see if there is anything that can be done.
Sorry if that's not what you what to hear, but as you are presumably under a doctor's care for this, and I know you have other physical health issues that could impact it, I am unsure what more we are even allowed to say.
