Corporal Battery vs Domestic Violence

I am being charged with Corporal Battery and resisting arrest. Originally the charge was domestic violence. Photos taken show red marks on fiancee' neck. I am guilty; however this was drug related. I have a terrible background of charges, all drug related. I've been in prison. I have never been offered a drug rehabilitation program. I am facing 7 years??? Public Defender is not helping fight for drug program. Is it possible to get this reduced to domestic violence. My fiancee' is very upset as she also wants a program for me. I am out on bail $500 and have started domestic violence classes and drug classes. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
