Unfortunately, no one can know ahead of time what a doctor is or is not willing to prescribe, as that is based on the doctor's discretion and not solely on someone else's previous appointment.

Some advice I can give you is to not specifically ask for any 'specific medication' when you see a new doctor. Make sure to transfer or take a copy of all your medical records with you. Then, the best approach is to discuss up front and honestly what has or hasn't worked for you in the past. Most doctors will take it under consideration and hear you out if you approach them in this manner. A lot of patients don't get the medication they need because they are approaching the doctor in such a needy way that they are being viewed as addicts and not patients. So as awkward as that may seem, it is something to consider...

In regards to finding a local pain doctor, I have listed below a couple websites specific to locating pain management doctors in a given area. All you have to do is input your city or zip code for narrowed results:
{link removed because site no longer exists}

You can give this other page a try too if you come up with different results for some reason or another:
wellness.com/find/pain%20management%20specialist

Many of the results you find (in one or both of the links above) also list a phone number for that specific doctor; I'd consider calling up a number of them to see if they are accepting new patients; some aren't, but most usually are.

Good luck! And I hope this info helps!

Looking for a doctor who is willing to prescribe Vicodin in South Carolina. I have two ruptured discs , L4 and L5, and at times have sciatica that is so bad I can't get comfortable in any position. I am going to the chiropractor and using ice therapy, but as a teacher, I can't just stop and lie down on the ice whenever I hurt. Can anyone help me? I have BC/BS insurance. Thanks very much...

i go to a pain clinic in Denver, NC. if you are willing to travel for it, they will prescribe you what you need. they do NOT like people with insurance!!!!!!!!!!They want cash or debit before the appt. regular urine checks, etc. all girls in there are the Biggest B's in the universe, but you can get your prescription and get the heck out of there. they only have a physicians assistant to see you, but who cares? if you are truly in pain, you will go find them.

That sounds expensive. Who needs the attitude not knowing what you will get ,, if anything, for pain? How much is a visit? Every month? If they have an attitude up front, they will discharge you for anything! I need a great pain Dr. w/ in 40-50 miles of Charlotte, NC? Not Afraid of strong pain meds. for real pain? No attitude only compassion? Accepts ins.?

Where do you live?? I go to a Dr. Hanson in Norfolk, VA. He is the most compassionate doctor I have EVER met. And he will basically prescribe ya whatever ya need. But he will not put up with doctor shopping AT ALL. And not saying you do but if illicit drugs pop up in a drug panel you get a letter firing you. You never said where you live though.......Oh yeah he runs a concierge business. $125 a month plus insurance copays every two months. But Lord knows the man is totally worth it.

Any one knows where I can get my Oxymorphone 20my filled in Activas brand. ? I've been going to same pharmacy for 3 years and she said they are back ordered and will not tell her when she is going to get them. It's10 days now and tomorrow she is going to try and get some information. She wants me to take the Global but they have no comparison to the Activas. I also get migraines with the Globals. I already paid but my Dr Will rewrite prescription. Plus my pharmacy said that the Actvias and Global are same price. Everyone else said that the Global are $110 depending on how many. And I have already paid over $450..for Activas. My insurance company reimburse s me by I fill out the form years ago but they will not pay for any other brand. Please let me know if you can. I'm in pain and suffering. After 5 years on same stuff and now I only have my immediate pain medicine and taking extra if needed per doctor. Now I don't know what to say in morning be I can't find any pharmacy that will speak over phone. Thanks

Doesn't global now have a monopoly on oxymorphone er? Monoplys are illegal in the US!! Ha, I guess no one cares until the CDC and the govt pass laws stating only 90mg morphine equivalent will be allowed per patient per day and only 15 days opiate hospice care! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN/WE CAN CHANGE. LMBO
