Janet marrie. I can't believe since I still can't sleep well or feel better. That scrolling down I saw u mention about ultram. The brand name 4 tramadol ... Wow not a narcotic. It is a class 4 listed that change since August 28th. 0 14. Y was this ever given out as I read like candy. So many R so sick from this med.ive posted how horrible & toxic it's been. My left leg keeps going numb & now into a bit on my right leg !! Great. It's hard enough 2 find any relief on Tylenol 3... & now not even sure on March 5th I won't b turned down since this doc won't do any better. I've been looking yet again y does it take so long . Let's u no how many need help. Now those who crave it R out. & seeking it. Such s shame as we all keep saying wat happened 2 care in the system.where have all the backbones & respect gone from these docs. Y R they even practice.or say still in practice.u say 2 them U feel so sick U show them the blisters that itch & explain ur concerns. Yet I saw same thing on some of records... Left out so many things & some is even wrong info. I hope all R on here I've had the pleasure of meeting R holding on. U r all in my thoughts & prayers.read stay informed. Write 2 the food & drug association they want & need 2 b kept informed. So does the a merican pain association. Keep writing send ur info. My best & as always stay safe.

Hi All,

Believe me I feel your pain. I suffered bad allergic reaction from Sulfa a few years ago causing Stevens Johnson Syndrome and now I have a burned up corneal eye that is down right horribly uncomfortable not to mention all of the other conditions I suffer from due to this horrible ordeal. As of late I had an old school doctor who understood me and would listen and was giving me my pain meds on a normal basis. In the past these i**** network doctors only suggested anti-depressants which made me gain 50 pounds and feel the most miserable I have ever felt in my life. I have been through all of the anti-depressants I don't want any of the crap ever again. I found my perfect pain medication muscle relaxer cocktail with this really nice old doctor. Just today I come to find out he is in the hospital suffering heart issues. Now I am left in the cold. this medical system is so so horrible. These new generation of doctors, if your lucky enough to get one that speaks english as a first language, are so compassionless and view you as a chunk of meat. I am in the San Francisco Bay area so if any one knows of a good old school compassionate pain management doctor I would really really appreciate some referral information. I am in a big dilemma now. It is not going to be good. I do not know if my doctor is coming back and of course the other urgent clinic they referred me to the doctors gave me some stupid bull s*** about how they cannot give out pain meds. This world of medicine has become a horror story. They told me to go to my primary and the i****s knew that I was there because my primary was in the hospital and unavailable. Oh what to do. I feel everyones pain here this really really sucks. I wish I was alive back in the 50's 60's where the doctors were real and did their jobs. Any advice for a good pain medicine doctor in the San Francisco Bay Area would be very appreciated. Thank you,

Hopelessly Screwed

Kari I'm sorry about that problem you have described. I initially wanted to put a question out there. Before I had a chance to write about it, I had a new experience
on Monday. I saw an OB/GYN because my left breast is in burning pain. I am going to have a mammogram 9:30am tomorrow. I'm having anxiety. I can feel my heart beating a little more than usual. I still want to look up that serotonin thing. I also hate the fact I have a voluminous records, from my previous neuro. I cannot imagine a specialist that doesn't want to see the pounds of labs and narrated hours
of clinical observations made since 1992. I was prescribed Vicodin, muscle relaxers, Benzos, The pain in my leg burns. I am not living a quality of life that can be measured. Irony is that the pain in my left leg prevents me. The irony is that the
pain in my left breast is also a burning pain.

hello to all, and welcome to all the new folks here. I find the whole prescribing thing ridiculous. all a doc has to do is maintain adequate records to indicate the need for pain meds. they should be keeping adequate records anyway! they take an oath to care for their patients. although they do choose what kind of practice they have and they can choose how to treat patients it does not make any sense that they would knowingly and deliberately not treat someone who needs care, just because they don't want to keep up with paperwork. I don't understand why this is not considered malpractice. any physician who turns a patient away and does not treat them is so cruel. we treat our pets better than our people. we give them our care and compassion but not our people. ive been in the medical field for over 30 years and this is down right embarrassing. although I was not aware of the severe problem until I found myself in the same situation. in the medical world we used to take care of each other, but now because I am a nurse they think im just drug seeking even though I have the records, when reviewing my chart it is very lacking there is so much that has been left out. how do you make a doc keep accurate records?. I am thankful to meds chat and all of you for giving me a voice. god bless my prayers are with you all.

Used Up...Thanks for putting this subject into a different perspective. Your certainly right about the doctors not having ANY backbone whatsoever for their patients. I would think the doctors that specialize in Pain Management would be standing up, That's their livelihood for goodness sakes. Statistics show H use has increased 66% since the change in these laws and unfortunately it will continue to rise along w/the deaths of our young. Too bad they've taken away the "Doctor-Patient Care" and forced the hand of that 66% into finding a "Dealer" that has no problem in taking care of your every need...For the i****s out there that think these new laws will reduce the deaths in our young society, do your homework!!! Doctors will lose their patients, parents will lose their children and drug dealers will get richer and richer! Now isn't that ironic??? Hmmm...

I am having a lot of problems with my pain management specialist. I am disabled and receive Medicaid. I have s lot of ailments and was receiving 6 roxicodone 30mg tablets per day. From your experience do you know if this office accepts Medicaid and do you feel that they would be willing to prescribe the high dosage I have been receiving for the past 7 years of my life? I don't currently have much access to the internet so I wouldn't be able to check an email. I live in Hendersonville N.C and my # is {edited for privacy}. If you could share the information you have about the good pain management practice in Georgia it would be so very much appreciated. I hope to speak to you soon. Thank you again so much for your help.

Best Wishes, Jack

BABS,
Please go easy on the political finger pointing. The new drug laws all began back in '99 when Florida's Governor Jeb Bush's daughter was busted for drug possession. One of those drugs? Oxycontin. She also was admitted for possible OD near that time.
Her Dr. appealed the FDA and DEA to reschedule the Oxycontin. Well, that snowballed over the early 2000's to include ALL forms of narcotic pain relievers.
President Obama was barely in congress when the DEA approved the scheduling change and set the date for November 2014.
Obama never had a hand on this. But it seems to be a good ol standby venting target. Say nasty things about someone else and blame your troubles on the Prez.
Me? I blame speculators, pharmaceutical companies (the alternative meds we are getting cost WAY more than what has been working), and I blame the Drs for not having the spine to stand up and advocate for their patients. My blame has more grey in it than "That @$(&&#! In the White House"!!!!

Hey there 'painsucks' #919...im thinking of moving to the Bay area, do you know of any good pain doctors out that way? Im from Texas and been here all my life. Had an accident in 1979 and its only gotten worse throughout the years. I had an excellent doc but that all went downhill with the new drug laws. Ive been offered help to get off these meds and that'd be great if I weren't in so much pain without them. The addiction isnt the problem, ITS THE PAIN thats the problem. Ive been on somewhat of the same regime for over 30 years and cant comprehend the reasoning behind lowering my dosage or in some cases taking me completely off the meds that did work. More and more people will be forced to self medicate this awful pain. I'm afraid the H and other drug dealers will win this war... Unfortunately this is how Obama will pull off 'Population Control' without getting his own hands dirty!!! I'll put money on it he'll supply all the syringes for free. Thanks Mr. Obama! We couldn't have done it without ya...

Janet marrie, & hi Karen. I will say again that if I was dying from pain I would never take tramadol again ! It is listed as a class 4 drug now.so I ask y then with the problems it's causing y not prescribe something better known.as it is the generic & ultram the brand name. there r legal suits against this co. & now that doctors, hospitals & even the squad runs r having more & more people complaining of so many problems.the extreme anxiety,itching,anger that comes from no where.the body jolts, no sleep & pacing around.It changes U & never helped with the pain.it made U feel somewat uphoric so the more u r informed the better U can b prepared. the worst post I saw on a site was a wife who left her husband & took the children away because he became so dependent on Tramadol. & all the family tried so hard 2 explain how much they could c how he changed he simply didn't care. I've gone through the worst being on that med. if it works 4 U I hope it will b safe. The withdrawals r horrible !! It was like a poison u could feel circulating through ur body. so I ask again y if we have other meds we no how they've worked & helped & r also listed as a certain class med. y r we not. Using them 2 help so many!! My best & b careful extremely careful is all I can say. & please read b informed. my ER run the ER doc couldn't believe again another person brought in from body spasms & shock. as always stay safe.

kari I myself am relatively new to the site. I understand looking back to see the other questions and conversation. I post here sometimes every day sometimes not. I enjoy the live feed, I am a retired nurse and enjoy helping when I can, although I have learned a lot just reading about different meds and pain management, and the lack of care that is being given, I had never been exposed to the severe problem many are facing with pain until I came up against it. I am now also familiar with several who post here and enjoy their conversations, most of us have long histories and have dealt with some type of devastating event in our lives, most days are a struggle with all the anxiety that comes with our problems along with the pain being a huge factor. makes me feel grumpy a lot, but I try. so keep on posting its good to be able to communicate your feelings.
as far as the tramadol I was placed on it recently for a re injury of my shoulder. I am also on psych meds for anxiety,depression and bipolar disorder, I was unaware that the tramadol caused serotonin syndrome. I have been left with residual numbness in my face, along with the severe itching from the tramadol, I would avoid it if you can. keep your chin up my thoughts are with you. karen

Regarding Tramadol/Ultram: Please scroll down. I've posted my nightmare with it. It works fine for lots of people but DON'T rely on the Dr and pharmacy to save you from getting killed or suffering permanent damage. Get on the internet and use a drug interaction checker. Read and learn about side effects. This is a dangerous, last resort drug that is getting prescribed like candy. Multiple legal cases are going on regarding that drug. Hundreds, possibly thousands, die each year from it. Or suffer with things like scarring, or nerve damage (I still have no feeling in most of my right hand, likely permanently). Question your Dr about side effects and dangers of Tramadol. If they don't have any warnings? Tear it up in front of them and tell them to learn how to be a Dr. again. The first time didn't work out.

Seriously Kari? Now you are going to make things up? 1. No one told you to leave. We told you to stop posting 5 times a day because that isn't how this works. 2. Nether of us said anything rude or abusing. You just assumed and took it that way. Which had made you make a fool out of yourself. So do us a favor and stop playing the victim and move on! Thanks and have a nice day. :-)

I'm only defending myself from how i was talked to. I came on thiis site for help and the first posts I make I have 2 people complaining about my posts and telling ME to leave.
SO I'm either going find another group or if we could stop complaining about people who are all here for the same reason and just be kind and compassionate to each other because thats why un here...that would be great. So let's move on please I have been corrected multiple times and its all good.

Good luck Janet Marie I hope the tramadol us working OK for you so far. I have never used that medication before. Was on fentanyl and Oxycodone for break away and my new Dr decided I was WAY too over medicated which I think that is reduculous u have been in the same med regimine for years and it didn't really help with my pain.

I was thinking if askinh y DT to try Tramadol or Opana. Does anyone have experience with these 2 medications by chance. I have a pretty high tolerance for pain.
~Kindly Yours~

hi I haven't been able to write for about a month. When I read a few
about Tramadol. It was enough to read that ultram has a bad rep for a
reason. I also see that someone wrote to their states medical review
board. I have to go for now I have a med appt. I have been thinking
about how my leg is hurting more My neuro says I can't give you a narcotic. I only have the ultram he gave me. I have to try not to think about it for now.
