Need Help With Knee Pain

Updated

I have chronic knee pain and was once prescribed Norco 5/325. I only took a couple a day and my knees felt great. Almost 2 years later and my Dr or my ortho Dr will not perscribe them for me. I'm looking for a Dr in the Bloomington Indiana area that could help.

You need to see a Pain Management Dr. Norco is now a Schedule II drug and even though any Dr can prescribe it (or any other Schedule II) for chronic pain, many are referring patients to Pain Drs.

I recently contacted a pain management DR and I was informed that he only treats with injections.

Some do and some treat with both, or just meds depending on the situation. You may just have to make an appointment and go see one. There is no way to know how a Dr will treat each patient. But calling and only wanting meds is a red flag for drug seeking behavior. Have you had a recent MRI done? They will want copies of your medical records to prove you have a condition that requires strong pain meds. Some drs will only prescribe 1 or 2 Norco a day. If pain is chronic and severe most pain drs use Extended Release meds.
