Yeah, this is another stipulation/guidelines tossed out there by the CDC DEA and FDA. Your county board of mental health should take ya for free. Here in Colorado you don't need a referral and they don't take appointments so first come first serve. Get there early because you be waiting a long time. My doctor had no idea this is how it works....best of luck to you!!!! Hope you have a great day! I also have Medicaid (I think you said you do too) Colorado pain management center by suburban north is easy to get appointments quickly. You can get injections but there is a protocol you'll have to follow exactly. I'm scheduled for another MBB next week. First appointment with them was just last but week, I haven't had coffee yet so hope this makes sense.

Doctor Thomas Romano is not afraid to prescribensure what is right for you. He is amazing and was part of the board that set fibro criteria. He has heled me so much. When he does injections into joints it seriously doesn't hurt. He is amazing and in your area.

I have all kinds of health issues. I was taking pain meds but I have been told to go to a pain clinic and they want me to do injections and I cannot because i have a blood clot disorder and I am on blood thinners and I have disc sitting on each other and the nerve. I have SLE Lupus fibromyalgia arthritis and too many to write. They want me to go to s shrink to ensure I am not a drug addict it makes me so mad. Please I need the phone number and name.

The Britton center is an awesome clinic as long as you have chronic pain and you follow their rules, They r very friendly. The only issues i have experienced is insurance issues they dropped their contract with medica and if you can't be seen by a dr they will not fill your medication, so i had to go a week with out meds before i finally paid cash for the visit cause i couldn't change my insurance plan and as of right now they seem over booked all the time so your appt is usually a wait, But with all that said they r the most knowledgeable and friendly pain clinic i have been to!!!

Truthhurts, if anyone actually believes that any restrictions will be lifted if one presidential candiate is elected over another, they are not dealing with reality.

First off, keep your politics to yourself. This is not the forum for it. And the vile hatred you spew is not relevant to the subject. Secondly, whatever meds you're taking, they have obviously turned whatever brain you had into mush. You say you're "educated" but your posts dictate otherwise. It's kind of sad actually. Now, you go on and have yourself a good day, even though you're living in some military state somewhere.
Peace

P450- I had not read about gov. going after Duragesic & Oxycontin.... Specifically. Is this recent or been their plan for awhile? Asking because it took me so too long to find a new dr, then have him prescribe Oxycontin was such a surprise & blessing. He has not mentioned switching or indicating any problems with writing for the Oxy, I pray he has not been contacted by the gov criminals. I do so wish I could be evaluated for genetic info but ins does not cover that, therefore paying cash for these diagnostics is out of question. Thousands of dollars is out of my capabilities.

Now only long acting pain meds not tried has been methadone & Duragesic. Since I never have had probs with oral meds, patches are simply too much trouble along with unreliable dosage due to adherence difficulties. Plus the oxycontin just affects my body so dramatically different, it is ridiculous to not stick with it. God I pray the gov is unsuccessful in eliminating oxy for my body cannot bear the pain as it is, too long undertreated causing too much damage already. Much love & strength to you for your help in this desperate time.

That happened with me with xanex one time. I was prescribed 3 footballs a day for anxiety. I had never been on it before. He kept prescribing it to me without seeing me. So, one time I ran out, didn't request it back because I didn't think I needed it anymore so I went thru major withdrawals for 3 days!!!! It's terrible. When I called the doctor to tell him what was going on, he said I wasn't a patient of his. Some of the worst 3 days I have ever had. Now, I am back on it but cut myself off every once in a while just to make sure it doesn't happen again. I think for those of us who need drugs like that have to pretty much determine how much we take and when. It's a bad way to learn about withdrawals tho when doctors do that to us!!!!! I've found a doctor now that helps me monitor it regularly so it doesn't happen again. Find you another doctor ASAP and ask for clonopin. It's a lower dose and not as addictive

I started out taking 4 Percodan per day…2 per day actually, but I was prescribed 4 per day. Then it was OxyContin, then Fentanyl after they stopped funding for the new tamper proof OxyNeo. On June 23rd 2016, my doctor cut me off 50 mcg Fentanyl patches COLD TURKEY because it had not shown up in my U/A in her office. I'm being punished for something I didn't do. Now I'm suffering withdrawals and she will not listen to me nor say anything at all. Hippocratic Oath? Naw, Hypocritic Oath more like it.

Posters,

I lost a daughter also during my years of intractable pain. I do not blame this on strangers. Further, the poster who was causing so much difficulty and hardship attacking so many here posted public information on my physician and this physician is RETIRING AGAIN--if he or she saw this doctor would certainly know this.

The cardiac event that I also linked a layman's link is rare, and Methadone should NEVER be increased more than one time in 7 days. If a patient takes it upon themselves to boot the drug because you may not FEEL until you are on it for several weeks it is killing the pain (due to slow liver pass) then death can occur. Further an inexperienced physician may increase it too soon listening to the patient's plea for better pain control. This is not good for the drug stays in the liver at all times and builds up. You truly must give it a chance.

I have noted several BT medications you all have taken to supplement Methadone either in the beginning of therapy or later and can be utilized. Methadone is NOT touching my severe neuropathic pain which is dangerous, for this at times causes numbness & temperature sensation awry which can lead to falls and further damage--this is truly suicide level pain.

Heather,

Have you gotten pain management? When you were in the hospital for these life threatening events that is the time to ask your treating physician for immediate referral. While in the hospital you can actually be seen by a pain specialist and start treatment. I hope this is the case for you.

Peace...

Lynx,

You may need LESS Methadone depending on your liver function tests. Let's refer it back to the physician. Next, you may not be able to receive Oxycontin and Duragesic due to the government STOPPING these drugs for all Americans. Withdrawal is about even on Duragesic and Methadone unless your family member who was on Methadone was also on Duragesic trust ME on this one. It will work for any of us it is for some of us NOT the most pleasant drug at all I am fighting SEDATION on this drug and hate SEDATION. I also started it with some very unusual dreams that were terrifying...

Yet all opioids will cause these effects. Many of us get used to one drug for so long that we think we prefer it. You may FIND this drug will hold your pain to such a good level that your life may turn around.

I hope this helps.
