REPORT

BL of course he will we discussed it MY HUGE PROBLEM IS NOW and long story my referral he gave me cannot take WC even though I too have Medicare. The doc in LA has not returned feedback although they called me right away very kind folks it's the type of medication I'm on in my case due to the P450 and allergies I am screwed without. I am allergic and he knows this he just forgot cause I was yacking about his health issues to circle. I am now worried and may need another appointment this physician he gave me is an associate but her accountant won't let me make the appointment due to WC payor source. I also now am having major SSA issue so heading down there in awhile I need a good doctor and prayers. Remember I'm a nurse it was his office that stated I might have to come back for the brand scrip.

Jay just seeing your post the FDA put this 120 mg Morphine Equivalent into effect this year I'd do a google search to obtain their recommendation. The key is yes I am one of the rare patients who is not only an ultra rapid opioid metabolizer (I carry a card in order if I am unconscious a hospital treats me with my high levels PLUS medications for acute pain if needed) BUT that changes nothing. To figure out the equivalent takes work as well but if you were on higher you will find your doctor will take you down to the equivalent he or she has not choice. Otherwise they are flagged and it will incite all kinds of issues. None of these physicians are willing to lose their license for one of us and none of us have a right to think they should. I had emailed with Dr. Bill up in Virginia prior to his second huge arrest and it changed Virginia which was a compassionate state forever. My now deceased PM of 10 years took his patient overload for the first time Dr. Bill was arrested several of his patients were on television begging for help from any physician and ended up committing suicide. Dr. H. swore if he went to prison this last time he would not let it happen again (God bless him I miss him more than anything these days). So all of us and I believe it is due to Obama I predicted this when he came in remember he was the one who suggested physicians get bonuses through federal grants for NOT treating chronic people who are aging (duh to him that is 30 I guess) meaning the firing squad. I'd love to let him live with my systemic RSD and 400 other issues for 10 minutes he'd be on his knees begging for anything if he did not have a MI or CVA and die from this type of pain. Anyhow Jay try a google search the damn FDA never did this before it's a new game field and not good for any of us in need.

Hi Tracy and everyone ultram is a joke it is a mixed agonist antagonist whereas oxycodone which is in percocet is agonist. If you were on a very high dosage please do not stop cold turkey you may need help. Worse comes to worse find a methadone clinic and register. Unfortunately due to restraints many folks who are pain patients end up having to go this route. Methadone is one of the best LA drugs and pennies compared to other medications but withdrawal is very bad it is a drug that has slow pass through the liver. My update sucks I must have brand on the patches the doc I visited on Monday wrote 15 with a referral for me that is not many but now the insurer is trying to jack me may have to drive all the way back to Houston for a brand script also contacting his referral. The doctor in Louisiana you guys wrote about received my records and they called BUT he is not comfortable with the medications I was on so I emailed the girl back who called and stated that of course after 5 months I have titrated to a lower level. Any of you on high levels do not send that ahead of your appointment I am thinking you will be better off discussing that in person. Chris I would never suggest Virginia I just happened to find that one clinic and I tried to post a longer post two times they have two addresses for my new Richmond friends in need there is one in Charlottesville also. Dr. Audet and Dr. Balint.

Chris the doctor I gave you is a physiatrist do not worry if they call the place interventional do you hear me. He writes medications they mistakenly listed his office as a PT and patients wanting PT were complaining that he wrote powerful opioids and hated that do you hear me?

They are clearing my message right now. Balint and Audet now have 2 offices in Weyers Cave and Charlottesville, VA as you know Richmond is dry. I strongly suggest not sending them records for high level opioid treatment in advance. Discuss your former medications once there. It should come soon folks, if not I'll post again.

Locations:

54 Franklin St
Ste 104
Weyers Cave, VA 24486

Hi Everyone UNLIKE others who do not come back when they either visit or find a physician I'll update you on my trip to Houston. I saw a very nice physician he's empathetic BUT you go to him if you still need injections and so forth, I do know that he writes medications, but found too he is currently suffering health issues. It was 107 miles one way; since I lost my famous doc in California I was forced to a huge reduction and then took WC back to court--their goal was kill me off (cheaper that way) rather then continue to pay my case which is almost 17 years old. I have progressed to Central Pain Syndrome still will likely need the lumbar full BAK cage fusion already had the anterior cervical fusion BUT even the duck in Virginia (I'm in Texas) noted now C4 dysfunction above my C5 and C6 which were done in 2002, and I have the best ortho and professor in the U.S. already however, the i****s did not send me in 2013 when my famous doc referred me due to increasing numbness bilaterally which as many know is and can be worse then pain. It makes walking, bathing or anything unsafe completely. Well this physician referred me to another of his partners who does folks like me who are at the point in their injury or pain that medication management is done. I am very exhausted from the trip; he was kind enough to write me 3 boxes of brand high dose on my patches now I have contacted the WC people (voice mail with witnesses) for the Judge found on my behalf and felt due diligence was not exercised since the end of March. I have the right to be treated. They cannot deny this. They are trying to pussy around and we all know just for what I received we are talking 2 bills. I use a pharmacy that handles comp and car accidents out of Philly. Tomorrow we will call for two more appointments; I sent my records and some background on fax to the physician in Louisiana. I will also contact the referral this doc in Houston gave me yesterday. If any of ya'll know of a good physician in Louisiana, Texas, NM, or other please advise I am getting down to the bottom of the barrel!

If you have been on these medications for five years and have a legitimate reason, I would suggest contacting a V.A. representative who could set you up with the nearest center in your area. Most V.A. hospitals- the larger ones anyway, have pain management that is available to all veterans with an honorable discharge. Some larger ones have methadone clinics too, if the physician feels this medication is needed for serious severe cases. However, pain management is a place to start. And, as you should already know, its free. As a veteran myself, I know. Thank you for your dedicated service to your country....something I didn't hear back in my era. Soldier On! Hope this helps.

P450-I fear since Dr. O is not medical PM he will not do scripts for pain-was told by one appt. that interventional PM wrong type dr. for me. However when asked for referral I was given name of dr. no longer there (disconnected phone). Due diligence legal term but why dr. not see you out of meds & into withdraw if no script yet send you out door w/o any help? Plus charge $$ 1st visit fee on top. If complain you are "drug seeker" (even tho looking at me they KNOW I have pain). Killing off weak is Obamacare-I simply have too much pain to function at all so find myself suffering to death. Forgot what I needed to ask but plea for help from a willing painer with info on brave dedicated PM doc. Meds I took allowing me tpe this, soon will have nothing surely be hospitalized which cant pay. BL how did you find help? You seem to have all the answers? Need strength over suffering... Chris

To P450 from SH,

I didn't get the clue to who the Richmond Virginia pain Dr.is- OK it is a woman. I am getting only a small disability ck. I left my significant other about 1 1/2 yrs ago. The older vans were his, so I don't have transportation beyond Richmond area. I could go into North Carolina about 1-2 hrs away. Can you give me more definite info.about the Dr. In Richmond area.I have sent records to 5 drs with a response, "I can't help you". I have been to the other drs. That prescribe meds. I never should have left my Dr. W of 5+ yrs because she did meds plus inj's. She had me on 60-80 mg Methadone, and added Fentanyl up to125 MCG, plus vicoden / then Norco. Before my 2 fusions, she increased the Fentanyl to 175 MCG. After surgery, added Dilaudid. So I have a very hi tolerance. What can be done legally? I should not have To go to a methadone clinic for opiate addicts!! Dependence is not addiction. But, withdrawal is awful, coupled with pain!! Help!! Good luck in Texas. If I had $$, I would fly to anywhere. I don't want a quack either. Give me a hint again about Richmond Virginia. Thanks so much!!

BL I went ahead and faxed records to Dr. Troy hoping to see him too less than 190 miles which is not bad when I've had to go to California from Texas for 5 years. Problem is I'm on such a lower amount that my life is pure pain. Any help is needed folks I give mine please pass along anyone in Texas, Louisiana, NM, and if need be Arizona or thereabouts. Vegas might even work.

Jason, Everyone is dry due to new FDA requirements there are 2 neurologists in Weyers Cove I've had to go to California from Texas for 5 years and now they cannot treat out of state there so I'm in trouble need someone in Texas, NM, or Louisiana. Balint Pain Clinics supposedly do I'd try them. Leaving for Houston folks (200 plus miles round trip) to meet a doc today say a prayer.

BL, hi do you mean Dr. Troy. I am following up all of these leads (here) with VITALS and also checking to see if they are sanctioned. (1) I have my genetic profile from the lab on P450 I am a medical exception but if I had not kept medication aside would be dead I have not had a prescription since end of March and took the Employer to court to win due to NO due diligence (2) I am searching on my own personally I have done successfully over 10,000 referrals for PM since my injury in 1998 and know what you find on open forums where we don't really have identities. (3) Yes I've checked all the dates, for example Dr. Troy is now in his own clinic and still listed (I read patient reviews) for doing pain management (recently). What bothers me the most is that pain patients (also my reputation is just as important as I am a professional nurse so my license counts when I visit a doc) won't make the efforts to travel--for the love of God I was forced due to the death of my PM of 10 plus years and my complexity to go to California. Our current elected party is our problem in a nutshell; you do know since he came into office Oxycontin immediately became a shortage in high doses and then was REMOVED at the super high levels. The horror story is we now live in a nation where if you are over 40 and chronic he would like you put to death. Pain patients must be responsible. I also find that most people find the help and don't post I used to filter and keep private my pain support lists. BL did you get help?
