Chicago - In Need Of Doc To Continue Meds

Updated

Hi, I'm currently prescribed OxyContin 30mg every 8 hours and Dilaudid 4mg every 4 hours PRN for breakthrough and my doctor that I saw is internal medicine and doesn't want to continue these scripts regularly anymore.

I know it's hard to find a doctor/PM Clinic that will do med management but these meds are pretty mild (30mg oxycodone released over 12 hours is 2.5mg/hour and Dilaudid 4mg works amazing for pain, hydromorphone for me is a godsend for my back pain. I can literally feel my spine relax and pain dissolve within minutes after taking my Dilaudid. I live downstate about 2 hours away but doctors in my rural area just don't prescribe these meds and we have no pain clinics or pain management for crap.

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction as far as an office or physician that can help manage my pain.

Thanks in advance for replies.
