gary, not all insurance companies require referrals. Check with yours to be sure they do.

Tell me about Chatman please. I need to get a pain management Dr. The family doctor I have is thrilled every time he can turn my Vicodin script down. I have chronic knee pain ,and multi level DG of L5 that is causing near constant back pain. My feet are numb most of the time. And now my neck is starting to feel the same way. We don't even have a spine dr in mountain home ar. I am hoping a good pain dr can refer me to a good spine dr and we can work together.

just letting you know it usually takes 6 month to get into a pain treatment center after you've been referred by your primary doc

Calgirl,
I like you moved here and the Doc you refer must be Tilley. I have been seeing PM since my injury in 2003, since moving to mountain home i have had the worst treatment period in all my yrs from Tilley. The doc you want is Chatman however they Will NOT allow you to change doctor. what a crock of s***, since when does the paying patient not allowed to change docs? Tilley is useless so if folk could change he would have no patients

Kay-although not a pain med, MILK THISTLE extract soothes the liver and helps offset drug damage.

Buy in liquid for at the health food store. Place one dropper full under tongue twice daily.

If you can't tolerate the taste, place in 1 oz. Tepid water and drink.

Candace, thanx so much for the doctor suggestions. Hope one of them will see me...I have no problem getting a referral if one is needed. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high since I have been living in hell since I came to Arkansas from California. I live in Mountain Home now & it's like living in the twilight zone as far as medical care goes! Thanx again for your input & for taking the time to help. :)

Hello Country Chick! I read your post regarding pain management in NW Arkansas. I live in Mountain Home AR (north-central AR) & my driver is willing to take me as far as necessary to find pain relief. I am 63 yo & have had 2 lumbar surgeries & one C-spine surgery, none of which has worked. I moved to Mountain Home from California a year ago to be with my sister (and best friend). Three months after my last lumbar surgery (in California) I was doing great thanks to meds that controlled my pain & an excellent physical therapist. Since I moved to Arkansas & ran out of my California meds, I haven't been able to find a good pain management doctor. There is only one doctor here and he treats me like I'm a drug addict despite the fact that I have all my medical & surgery records, MRI & X-ray films, and my original med containers from California. He is rude & abusive...I have never experienced anything like this before! I am in chronic, agonizing pain & am unable to walk or function in any meaningful way. The only time I leave the house is for doctor appts. I was taking MSContin, Soma and oxycodone for "breakthrough" pain. I sometimes think of suicide just to get away from the pain. If you could help me with some doctors' names I would greatly appreciate it. You would be saving my life! Thank you in advance. Calgirl

What part of Arkansas are y'all located? It's almost impossible to find a good pain management doctor here. There is a few good ones in northwest Arkansas. The biggest thing is you need a referral to see any pain doctor and trying to find a Pcp that will refer you is hard. I would share names of doctors but I'm a little sceptic as this is the first time I've ever responded.

my condition is that i have vascular necrosis, osteoporosis, and crohns disease. i have had both hips replaced, i have chronic pain and can not get a pcp due to medical history. i am told that i have a complex dx and need to look elsewhere. i have been to several pain management clinics and have been tpld that they only do intraventional therapy with nerve blocks, etc. and this type of treatment would not benefit me, that i need long term pain medicine pain management. and no one is willing to help me find such a doctor. i am 39 yo and since 2005 i have had 18 surgeries, bowel resection and joint replacement. i live near jonesboro, ar. but i am willing to travel as far as neesed. please help me.

Unfortunately I don't have a phone number to these doctors, but maybe you could look each one of them up to see which doctor might be best for your specific needs.

I hope this info helps and wish you good luck on your search! If anyone else can recommend a doctor or alternative medicine, that would be great too!

Hello community: I wrote yesterday and got back this morning good information. Vicoprofen and it's elimination process sounds just great for my need. I will start a search for a doctor near Little Rock Arkansas area who will see me as a patient in need of this drug. In the mean time any natural remedys for pain that is liver friendly would be much appreciated. Have a good-day, community.
