Back in the old days the Doctor would come to you! I'd stick with your Doc

Hello, Ricky! How are you?

I have to agree with Eddy. If your doctor is still prescribing them without a problem, then your best bet is to stick with them.

Due to new regulations that were put in place this year, many new restrictions have been placed on doctors and it's harder for many of them to prescribe any controlled substances. This has caused many people to need to start seeing specialists and most of them have gotten flooded by new patients, so they are full up and have no room for more.

You can just browse through the recent posts on this site and you'll see a lot of people having problems getting their medications and/or finding a new doctor.

And what is your general area? You didn't mention it, which means no one can even suggest a doctor for you to try, if they know of one taking new patients.

If you're finding a dr who will prescribe your meds! Laws are getting very strict on these types of medications!

I cannot believe what the government is doing to chronic pain patients under the guise of taking care of the opiate problem. What the government is doing will actually push more people to the street to find relief for their chronic pain. I predict we are going to be seeing more and more illicit drug users because people just cannot live with the extreme pain many of us suffer from. I have had chronic pain from a failed back surgery & childhood injuries as an elite athlete- later compounded by Lyme & other tick-borne diseases. I've had to cut my pain medication in half & then in half again. I was just recently prescribed a high-dose NSAID - I'm trying that but in the past I got severe edema from NSAIDs - Plus all the other side effects caused by NSAIDs. I saw a wonderful pain management doctor for 20 years until he retired. My current pain management doctor has been pushing the Medtronics Device I tried before without success. I am really not looking forward to living w/ severe chronic pain again. It's been worse since I've cut back on my meds. I did so well on my pain meds for so many years but am terrified about living with severe pain again. Has anyone read the book Crooked? It discusses all the back pain "relief" scams out there. I don't agree with her section on opioids where it's been supposedly proven that NSAID's work just as well as opioids; everything else is great information. Man has used opiates for pain for too many years to deny its efficacy.

Hi , read your post about I think Methadone and Xanax. Very easy solution. Get your Xanax from your Primary care physician for Anxiety. And then get your Methadone ONLY from your Pain Doc. Works for me and I'm on the same two meds. Good Luck hope it helps.
