Subutex Doctor - East Coast - Help Me Find One Please!!!! (Page 9)

Updated

I have been on Subutex for a year. My Doctor has retired, abruptly. I cannot find another physician willing to prescribe me Subutex (24 mg. daily) instead of Suboxone. I travel a lot w/ work. I would be grateful if anyone could tell me ANY Doctor anywhere on the East Coast that prescribes Subutex. Suboxone breaks me out in horrible itchy rashes and welts, makes breathing a little difficult and gives me blinding headaches- within ten to fifteen minutes of taking it. I am serious about recovery. Can someone help?!

i live in wv and have medicaid.. my sub dr wouldnt take it becaus he was still in residency so i had to pay for my app but for the script it had to have prior authorization through medicaid. my dr had to fill out a form and fax it to medicaid and they had to approve it and it only takes up to 48 hours so although i had to pay for the dr visit my script was completely covered. hope that helps!

Hi. My name is DS. Your messages are from a while back, but I am hoping and PRAYING you still get on here and can still help people. I know you probably got swarmed with more requests...I didnt even read on to see. Here is my situation. I moved here from NC where I was getting the Suboxone Tablet. They started me on strips, but after about 2 months, my tongue just started blistering up. Very weird. SO the doc put me on tabs. Then, I moved here and can only get strips, no exceptions, so I am forced to buy Subutex off the street which is killing me. Also, buying that way, I can normally only get Subutex and recently when I did find a Suboxone tablet like I got in NC, it caused a allergic reaction on my tongue as well. IDK if its because I havent dont them in so long or what. So, I am on the hunt to find a doc who will prescribe me Subutex. What is hurting my chances as well is that my boyfriend is also on Subutex and he also has an issue taking strips. When he tries to, he immediately gags and gets sick. So, he isnt able to hold it under his tongue long enough to absorb the medication. So of course, we want to go to the same doc and share the ride cause we know we have to travel far. But, then we look like a couple of junkies traveling from out of town, hours away, both with "issues" taking Suboxone. Truthfully, he is the only other person I have met since I got into the program who actually has a problem like me. But I am sure there are others like us. Problem is, a lot are not and they just dont want the blocker. WE DONT CARE. We just want to get better. So everytime I have tried to explain our issues to the nurse or Doc, they just roll their eyes and treat us like all the other people trying to get Subs so they can do them or sell them. Him and I have both been off opiates for over a year now and we dont even feel high on the medicines anymore anyways. We tried at first and did feel high, to be honest, but not anymore. I dont understand honestly what the problem is and why there is such a big issue, you know? I mean, some say its just a substitute and people are just trading in one addiction for another, but so what? This addiction doesnt kill you like opiates or make you ruin your life. This medication makes it so we can function normally and its wonderful. What does the government care if everyone wanted it? They are getting paid their taxes, pharmacies are booming, and the manufacturer is making more money than anyone in the world. LOL. Anyways, we can live a normal, successful and happy life with this medicine. Who can do that on H or pain pills? No one. SO, why not just give it to the people who want it? Then, there wouldnt be any selling on the street and everyone else (Doctors/Gov't/Etc.) get paid that money we are paying on the streets. So, if you can still help me, please reply and tell me what to do. PLEASE. I see you cannot put a number, but maybe a city or the name of the office so I can try to look it up? I will checking back. We have waited for months to get into clinics and twice have had to leave after driving 3 or more hours, waiting in the waiting room for several hours, just to be told they cannot write Subutex. Also, no one will tell me when I call so its just something we have to do. It seems crazy that we know so many people who get them and drive to PA for them, but by the time we get into the clinic, we get them telling us that all new patients get Subutex and current patients are slowly being changed over to it. What about us? We both work and have great jobs, we take care of our home and family. But this is starting to break us worse than doing the damn drug. And of course, the financial blows are causing arguments and tearing up our relationship. This is the first time I have gone on the internet and asked for help. Oh, we are in WV near Morgantown. I dont know where you are, but I am sure it will be worth it if you can help us please. Thank you so much Grace and I hope to hear from you soon.

I couldn't agree with you more! I recently had a dr in Pa who faked a oral exam and dirty exam from me. Let me explain. I admittedly did have a bad oral swab 3 mts ago, and he said he would Kick me out if I ever had another one. I knew he would so I decided not to ever have another one. So since that day i've done NOTHING but my meds. So I was pretty surprised to get a phone call today, The day I was supposed to have an appointment to go there. They said I had another dirty oral swab but that my UA was clean. My metabolite urinalisis was totally clean and normal but my oral swab wasn't. ??? Soooo I asked them what it was and what all the levels were, they faxed them to me and I compared this with the copy of the one from 3 mts ago. ALL the levels were EXACTLY the same. Every single one. The chances of that are 1 in like 1million. Soooo, My guess, the DR is getting heat from the DEA because he actually doesn't see his patients. He writes the scripts the night before and you don't ever even see him. I've only seen him twice in 6mts. So my dr must have gotten some heat from the DEA and decided to get rid of the OBVIOUS bad apples. Except for I hadn't done a f***ing thing. What a bunch of BS! The rest of his patients, some who are people I know personally, are just using their gf/bf's pee and using any other drugs they want. Then selling their meds. So I'm back to getting my meds from this same DR but Now, I'm really doing it the illegal way. THE WHOLE SYSTEM IS A SCAM! Wow, Unf***ingbelieveable!

Id be careful with the reply from some of the people on here, and if your thinking
of going to a doctor in n jersey, (from grace), you might wanna rethink, cause if you travel, you get there he writes you a script for 20 pills, wants you back in a week, etc...no long term solution from this guy at all and he is very strange....Ive been to docs all over and atleast they hook u up with a months on first visit.

Good news to all of those recovering, AND especially BAD news to all those DOCS and offices making a living on the addicts, and ripping them off. There is a trial drug (buprenorphine) going thru clinicals right now, and its for major depression, yeah thats right, soon hopefully, this drug will be approved for major depression, and will be easier to get, and FINALLY the psychiatric world will consider this for depression, making it much easier to get. Clinicals are taking place soon and if you want to get back to me, I can give more info, where, etc... GOODLUCK!!!
