Hello, Norma! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're in pain.
A hospital will usually only help if you are in severe withdrawal that may put you in danger and, even then, they will only treat you until you are stable. They will not prescribe medications for chronic pain, in most cases, due to the new directives issues by the DEA last year.
How did you lose your doctor?
My 17 yr old granddaughter passed away, I was shaking and lost one. Right before that happened I gave up my home because my husband and I have too much family living with us, both ended up on disability and could no longer do it. After the doc had already dropped me 100mg I really needed an extra one a couple times through wake and funeral which left me short and I came up with morphine in my drug panel results. He prescribes exactly by the hour, no 30 days of meds in 28 days, it's exactly 28 in 28 days. So my fault but through the stress I lost track of time and ended up with no doc. I have scoliosis, 30 degree bend, severe arthritis through lumbar section of spine needing fusion surgery, and muscles are severely tightened on right side of neck and left side of back due to one side trying to compensate for the other from the spine and neck curvature. This causes bruising through my back if I attempt to pack a box or anything involving bending.
