Doctors Willing To Prescribe Heavy Pain Medication In Colorado (Page 66)

Updated

I have a serious problem. My dr. had two patients start dr. shopping and has decided it is too big of a pain in his butt to continue prescribing, even though I have gotten MRIs and Xrays to prove my problems. I have over a half a dozen herniated discs in my low back, along with degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis and arthritis in my facet joints. I am currently on5 30mg oxycodone a day for breakthrough and 60mg of methadone for my long lasting meds. I REALLY need a doctor in the Denver, CO area who will not judge me because of my age, thinking I'm just some drug seeker as I TRULY need my meds to function. I am even being placed on disability until I can get my back healed because if something doesn't change I will be in big time pain for the rest of my life. If ANYONE knows of a good doctor that prescribes strong meds willingly in the Denver area please let me know. I am in desperate need of help as I am going to be SCREWED if I cannot find a good doctor. SOMEONE please help me with a doctor!!!!!

Again, everyone...DR. HONG...Google METRO MULTIDISCIINARY DOCTORS in Denver! He prescribes the heavy opiods to rhose that need it AND medical Marijuana!
He's a great doctor! Smart. He uses his own brain instead of letting the DEA dictate patient care!

You obviously haven't TRUELY SUFFERED severe pain.. When I came home after a near death , 2 month stay , 13 day coma, auto accident..I was on 100mcg. Duragesic, every 48 hrs instead of 72, up to 10-8mg Dilaudids for breathrough pain a month., and up to 8- 10 mg Valium for severe muscle spasms.. And 4-800 mg Neueontin, 300mg Wellbutrin for depressikn, and Lidocaine patches to help with pain issue. I had 15 Duragesic 100 mg patches, 320 8mg Dilaudid Tabs, and 320 10mg Diazepam tabs (Valium), and 120 800mg Neurontin tabs, and e0 Wellbutrin 300 tabs. Before my accident (on a day off helping a friend, by the way) I was a Frito Lay Route Manager, and didn't even drink beer anymore, was up at 3am every morning, and took nothing but a couple ibuprofen on occasion...Now I'm a Bail agent and recovery agent, and a Cerified Addiction Specialist..dealing with Opioid Dependence and Addiction. You must not have known to many people that have REALLY ...SUFFERED true Chronic pain..

Mighty: The website that you provided in your recent post is amazing in the amount of detailed information it provides. You are right, by spending time researching doctors we can find out a lot about the prescribing patterns, types of patients they see, etc., etc.
Many thanks!

Janeygirl: Regarding your study: I was told my meds would be filled every 30-31 days; however, my scripts this month were written for 31 days each;
I do not have Medicaid, so cannot answer your other Medicaid related questions;
In the past, I was offered self-pay by other pharmacies, however, my current medications are covered by insurance at the delivery pharmacy, so I did not have a need to be offered self-pay.
I have private insurance at the current time, which of course does not help b/c the doctor does not take insurance for the office visits.
Thank you for taking the time to compile the stats for your study.

I call BULLS##T!
First of all, 30 mg Oxycodone combined with Valium can cause respiratory arrest, add in the other things you say he is taking and he is a walking dead man!
You are new here and I do not trust you!

I would be happy to give the cash to your dr on your behalf for your appointment. Just last me know where to send it, since you do not know me and I don't know you, I would just give them cash in an envelope and you could ask for the envelope. If you go to CPR, it would even be easier, they are awesome there. Just let me know, we have been in here for years and I don't like seeing you in pain.
As for your survey,
Yes, told no sooner than day 30
Had issues getting medication on time, the wrong medication delivered early and another late.
Charging the wrong CC
not letting meknow when it is coming so i can be here to sign for it.
Lots of issues, but I think they are getting them worked out. Try to schedule your appointment with the Dr office a week before you are due to get your medication. Then 2 days before, call and confirm everything with Accordant, such as time and day it is going to be sent out. This will help you feel more in control or at least it does for me.

WANT A TERRIFIC DR? Dr. Hong in Denver, Colorado! He does pain management, will write for the stronger opiods...if necessary and appropriate! PLUS, he does NOT check for thc in your ua AND is a medical Marijuana dr! You can do both with him!

You don't need a Colorado license either, except for the medical Marijuana card. But, it's legal and he doesn't check for it, so, unless you need it for a job or something...just go to the local dispensary and buy it. He does not take insurance, $290 first visit and $150 each visit after that. Worth the drive if you don't live there. Just say you do...

CPR has one half of the office for pain medication management, and the other half is for suboxone (addiction) treatment. For anyone with Medicaid, CPR does accept Medicaid for addiction treatment and their prescribing of suboxone; however, as everyone knows, they do not accept Medicaid on the pain medication management side. That is due to the fact that Medicaid is much more generous in their reimbursement for addiction treatment than for pain management in the state of Colorado.

JohnS:
That's a really good point, now my question is:
How to find a Suboxone Dr?

Glad I found you guys, sorry for the alias but...
After reading all the posts, I have a few comments
1) injections can work if it is a good doc,pa, I have found the pa's shots are less painful than docs but it only works for so long and some folks say you shouldn't have them more times than 3 a lifetime, 3 a year etc, Steadman is great for that, we did have 2 good pain neuros up here but both have left, one overnight, now we are being referred to dr richard steig? Any thoughts??
I am scheduled to see a steadman pain doc here in a few weeks, will update.
My PCP said, you will just have to get used to being in pain, she suggested CBD, but we can lose a job for that so..., yes I don't mind putting up with some pain but do I have to stay awake in pain all night long, until I finally fall asleep, miss work and life to start it all over again, she put me on a small antidepressant that is contraindicated for heart patients, needless to say, she must have forgotten my pacemaker, what a pain..
so glad I found you all,

Ha, what docs have you been seeing up here in the mtns? I live up here and despite being on the same dosage of pain meds for 8 years, never increased, these docs have treated me so they know my injuries, they will not write scripts for pain meds unless you just broke a bone and have had surgery!
