Please Help I Live In Ventura County California And Need A Doctor (Top voted first)

Updated

I am 60 yr old female with Fibro since 1985. In January of 2011 I was diagnosed with MS and have severe leg pain (I need a walker to stand up). Since losing my job I am seeing a County Clinic Doctor who was giving me Vicodin ES 3x's/day. I told her once that I ran short due to breakthrough pain and she immediately cut me back to one regular vic a day!!!!!!! and gave me Elavil, Lyrica, Neurontin -- I am having so many side effects I don't know what meds are causing what........I need help, a liberal Doctor who will help me thru my daily pain. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to answer my post........thank you. Sue

Hey there I can't imagine what u have been going through. Have u ever tried methadone? It helps very well for chronic pain. I know of a great place you can go where u will get methadone, Xanax,klonopin,ambien,adderall, suboxone strips and I think some other things as well. I don't like to put the name and location on here but if u email me I can give u the information. It's {edited for privacy}. I'm sorry to hear you're in pain and If there's anyone else in ventura county who are in pain or have anxiety issues I know the perfect place to go that's local to us and I can guarantee u wouldn't have a problem there. Feel better everyone!

Sue I have a doctor that treats my pain that is in Rowland Heights Ca. His name is Dr. Adam Hy, he treats people with intractable pain(ie pain that can only be controlled with pain meds). There are two other dr,s that are in Pomona ca. that treats patients with the same kind of pain. mainly with opiate pain meds.I don't have their names in front of me at this time. Also there is a Dr. Forest Tenent that is in west covina that take patients that are in a emergency situation, you may try them.

FibroDrew, Here are the two Drs. that are in Pomona that are in a co-op type of thing to help people that have intractable pain. You need to use the phrase Intractable pain instead of chronic pain when trying to find the right Dr. to treat you. That is what these Drs. do is treat intractable pain patients. They and a couple of other Drs. out there were found by Dr Forest Tennent to treat people with intractable pain as he is getting older and found Drs. willing to keep treating itractable pain patients when he retires or worse. Google Dr. Tennent and you will find out all that he has done for us that suffer with pain. Dr. Tennent only see's people that are considerd an emergency and does alot of research on treating pain, and is well known for his efforts. By the way he is in West Covina Ca. Sorry for going on about him but he pretty much saved my life. The first one in Pomona is Dr. Martin J Porcelli D.O. Facof, 336 Ervilla st. Pomona Ca. 91767, (909) 629-1955. I only have the name of the other one, Lloyd Costello M.D Pomona Ca. you will have to google Dr. Costello for more info on him. You have to be a legit pain patient and have records to back up your injuries why you need pain meds. They check you out and your records when it comes to that as do most Drs. do. Good Luch and I hope one of them can help you.

What kind of side affects are you having? I have heard that its the law if you are in pain and ask for meds they have to give them to you .

Hi Sue, sorry to hear about your situation. Yes, many doctors are afraid to prescribe too many pain medications because they do not want to face an inquiry from the DEA or risk having their license revoked. While that is understandable, I think may of them go too far, and fail to allow legitimate patients such as yourself to get the medications they need.

In Oxnard there is a center called Oxnard Family Circle, which seems like it might be a good option. Have a look at their page about Pain Management to see if what they offer is in line with your needs. They are located at 5000 South C. Street, Oxnard CA, 93033.

I hope this helps and wish you the best!

I have had fibro since 89. In addition to the stiffness, and tenderness all over my body; I had severe and multiple muscle spasms. I had been being treated with relafen and all the antinflamatories, tranquilizers and antidepressants, and flexeril. A doctor in 95 that dealt in pressure points told me to take 1000 mg a day B12, calcium and magnesium, valerian root and St. John's wort with an 81 mg. aspirin, and acidophilus. This helped more than everything else I had been taking and rarely do I need anything else.

Well I am lucky as far as having a understanding dr
I have been on all kinds of meds for pain like neuron tin elivil muscle relaxers and even oxy but did not want to be on that all she also gives me norco which is more
Opiate and less aspirin them Vicodin it works very well
They said I can have 6per day so keep talking to a dr and just tell them you need more then one per day that is rediculas and does not last all day just a few hrs so I feel for u. Also mixing herbal remedys and precription drugs are not always a good Idea please keep us posted and will keep you in my prayers

I would really like to know where I could get some Xanax. I have severe pain issues that are not really being that either, but I have COPD and all the doctors out in California are scared to prescribe anything that has any effect due to this. Before I moved here from North Dakota my doctors were efficiently handling my pain and anxiety issues. I don't understand why California doctors are so scared to prescribe anything. I've had panic disorder since I was in my 20s and I'm now 52 and had the panic disorder long before I had COPD. Any information would be extremely grateful. Thank you God bless

Hey there, I have chronic lower back pain, fibromyalgia, depression, terrible menstral cramping, cysts on the ovaries, and have just been recovering from two torn acl's. I am at the end of my rope as far as pain goes. I even went out to get H and suffered the consequences with having to come down from that s***. I just moved back into Vta, my hometown and cannot find a doctor that will even consider helping with pain except for the few (10 to be exact) Norcos prescribed once a month. I also have to have a root canal today in Oxnard. I am extremely desperate to find something on a regular basis. With back surgery that went awry and with my knees I can't exercise as much as I would like to. I do not want to turn to street drugs again. Help me please.

Hey please contact me too with that dr info. I've had chronic back pain for 6 years and my dr had me on 6 norco per day then suddenly cut it to 2 per day because he feared the DEA and wanted to fly under the radar. I'm suffering as a result. Please contact me. I live in vta county
