Re: SunnyeRose (# 4304)

I have never been in denial that I am an addict. 55 yrs now. My dear was always what happens if I have genuine pain one day and nothing will help. Well these last 5 or so yrs. I have chronic joint pain all over and have developed mod. Emphysema from abusing myself. I don't beat myself up too much anymore guess come to accept and I always took responsibility for my bad hurtful decisions. No one was ever to blame. I want to get off my opiates with suboxone. Well it's so difficult for me to give up this drug as it has become my crutch. I take 10mg oxycodone 5x/day well supposed to but depends how I lie to myself. I do not do illegal street drugs anymore. I am proud of that. I am out of control with my script. I need help finding a doctor to put me on suboxone. My doctor won't. I love in NY LI and have Medicare and Medicaid. Any advice.

I need help. I am on oxycodone 10mg. 4x/day but this month I have been eating them like candy. I have been put on steroids for my asthma and they make me crazy. My control is gone. I will run short 5 days early and as I have done many cold turkey detoxes in my life from opiates, etc., u name it. Never went to detox. I will be 70 and I know this won't be as bad but I am scared. Can anyone suggest how I can get on Suboxone? My doctor doesn't believe in them. Please help.

Presently am in NY moving to Palm Beach county Florida. Need to bring all my MRI and records. I am on Medicare and Medicaid. I am nervous to find a doctor as I need blood pressure and breathing medicine as well as oxycodone 10mg 4x/day and Xanax 1mg 3x/day. Florida has a reputation to not give these pain meds out and if they do where to fill them. Any suggestions would b greatly appreciated. I am 70 yrs old and trying to have quality of life. I am an occupational therapist but can no longer do my profession as I work with geriatrics in rehab nursing homes and do not want to jeopardize the patients needed care.

BL- I have been following this post for a very long time, and have read every single post and I see that you have truly rubbed some posters the wrong way lol...However, I see your posts as knowledgeable jewels of wisdom, as most of them are supported by links to back up your perspective, facts, and/or opinions! In all honesty, I don't see what the issue is. If more people weren't so distraught over their limited narcotic distributions, they would clearly see that you've given them the tools to supersede the guidelines of the DEA. FDA, AND CDC! As well, I commend you for staying true to who you are and not engaging in derogatory and demeaning word play! As I'm sure your words have helped in more ways than one!

In 2012, I underwent surgery to remove a pinched nerve from between the bones of my right foot big toe. It was causing loss if balance and tremendous pain. After the surgery, pins were inserted in my foot, as my bone had to be broken in order for the problem to be rectified. I was prescribed 10mg Lortab (fat pink pill) every 4 hours, as needed for pain. I was off my foot, wearing a foot brace to walk in, and on FMLA from work for 4 months. Needless to say, I developed a tolerance and eventually an addiction that lasted for 5 years! I wasn't informed by the prescribing physician that this medicine had the risk for tolerance, dependence, nor addiciton/abuse! Prior to this surgery, I had no idea what prescription narcotics were. Now, I am currently on Suboxone to overcome my addiction and I can honestly say that these last few months have been tremendously different from the last 5 years of my life, as I am no longer in a drug induced brain fog- because that is exactly what opiates do over long term use. I see things so clearly now, therefore, I can understand the frustrations of these posters in regards to your comments because I know that if I were still where I was on the pain pills I probably wouldn't want to hear TRUTH either. I would just want my pills and nothing more. Addiction is SNEAKY AND VINDICTIVE, thus my advice to everyone is to do what you have to in order to reserve the quality of your life but please keep in mind the long term damage to the psyche caused by continuous use of narcotics! I wish you all the best in your journey towards life without debilitating pain!

From Alabama- This is MY opinion based on MY personal experiences, and I am entitled to that! I welcome all comments, disputes, and suggestions ?? Be Blessed!

Re: Tony (# 145)

I have three-fractured vertebrae, which was diagnosed in 2015. I have used many alternative methods of treatment. I have taken Percocet, when treated before. I have the bottle with the last time that I had the pain medication fillled, which has been almost a year ago. I am now having some of the back pain again. You suggested a great doctor, that you went to, who seems to be very understanding. I wanted to get more details about the physician. Thank you so very much.

Re: Kay (# 4287)

He sounds like MY Doc. who is Russian & in the Chicago burbs. Actually, the restrictions have nothing to do with it! He is just using that as an excuse as he hates out Pres. The Pres.basically wants the major bad crap off the STREET~he isn't as concerned w/pain clinics. My drug store told me with the little I have been taking, I am not a problem, then he cut me to only 2 -5mg oxycodone a day...give me a break-now I am in pain almost ALL the time & am very limited!!! I may go elsewhere. too.
