I am looking into changing pain management doctors. I've been on pain management over 8 yrs. My original one stopped doing pain mgmt last year & it took forever to find one to take my case. Now, i'm starting to question him & would like to know if anyone has any recommendations. I'm taking 40MG of OXYCODONE a day & 100MCG Fentanyl patch, plus Methocarbamol. Those are the "main" ones. Any help would be really appreciated! ## Pow dr dropped me over a U/A for alcohol. I'm so tired of the war over meds or medical marijuana. I just got rocked by my dr. Now I'm in search of a new dr who may help in Colorado Springs; even a cash dr till my referral from my primary care dr gets into the system.

I'm having difficulty finding a good doctor who doesn't scrutinize or is skeptical to patients for wanting pain meds, Norco 10/325's for pain is what I have been prescribed in the past for my medical condition. Please Help if you can refer me to a good doctor who listens and understands the patients! Thank You! M ## Hi, Eme! Sorry about the problem you're having and that you're in pain. No one should have to suffer. However, doctors have no choice but to be skeptical and scrutinize. If they don't and their prescribing practices are found to be questionable, they risk losing their license to practice medicine. The best thing you can do is to set up an appointment with a new doctor and then make sure that they receive a full copy of your current medical records. If...

I have disc disease and nerve damage with cancer. I have DNA paper analysis saying that my body is totally ok with 30mil oxycodone. in major pain ## Hello, Star Monroe! How are you? I'm sorry that you're in pain. Unfortunately, there is no listing of doctors according to what they will or will not prescribe that I can refer to for you. Technically, any doctor can prescribe it for pain, however, due to the regulations that were put in place last year, you'll need to see a pain management specialist if you require it on a long-term ongoing basis. Do you have a PCP that could refer you to someone? That would be the fast and easy way to get the help you need. Does anyone know of good doctors in that area? ## Meds Chat Discussion Hi, I am new here to Colorado Springs and have a s...

Any doctor's that acutally take into account personal knowledge effectiveness and previous use into account? Or are they all pretty much saying no to benzo's? In fact, I just recently had a doctor here in Colorado springs that Xanax CAUSES anxiety.

I need to know of prescribing doctors who would most likely approve of renewing my prescription of Diazepam 10's. I just got a new mental health doctor and she won't authorize my medication even though my previous doctor before her didn't see a problem with it. I was receiving a 90-count when I was unexpectedly cut off- I am in turmoil and my prescription of Percocet 10's was inappropriately cut off as well. I am having serious troubles coping with the lack of benefits these two medications have on my behavior and personality. If there is anything you can do to steer me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. I am in Pueblo, Colorado. {edited for privacy}. My primary care physician was the one who prescribed me the Percocet 10's - by the way. Thank yo...

I recently moved to colorado springs from florida... I have PTSD, anxiety, depression and seizures the list goes on and on. I have a prescription for clonazepam right now but it really doesnt work for anything but the seizures for me and need a doctor that isnt totally against trying something like xanax or at the very least prescribe me more clonazepam. i really dont wanna waste my time going to a doc that wont help me. My mom is an RN and on xanax and it helps her a lot, i know its addictive etc etc but when you need something to help you function thats a bit more important! if anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone in the Denver area know where I can go to get Dilaudid prescribed? I have back issues and can't get my hands on strong enough meds yet. New to Colorado. ## Dilaudid is rarely prescribed for chronic pain. This will be hard to find in any state. ## We normally don’t prescribe Dilaudid for chronic pain. We usually reserve this potent medication for acute pain and as an adjunct to anesthesia. Dilaudid has a very short duration of action, while it does relieve pain within seconds after injection, it’s not the optimal treatment for chronic conditions.

I have a serious problem. My dr. had two patients start dr. shopping and has decided it is too big of a pain in his butt to continue prescribing, even though I have gotten MRIs and Xrays to prove my problems. I have over a half a dozen herniated discs in my low back, along with degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis and arthritis in my facet joints. I am currently on5 30mg oxycodone a day for breakthrough and 60mg of methadone for my long lasting meds. I REALLY need a doctor in the Denver, CO area who will not judge me because of my age, thinking I'm just some drug seeker as I TRULY need my meds to function. I am even being placed on disability until I can get my back healed because if something doesn't change I will be in big time pain for the rest of my life. If...

I've been on methadone for almost 13 yrs due to a car accident when I was a teenager that left me disabled and with chronic pain. My current Dr. Received a letter from the Medical Board ( which he let me see) explaining that in order to keep prescribing methadone that he will need to get a license that will allow him too continue to perscribe this. My dr said it's became a huge hassle and that because of other patients "dr shopping" he just can't do it anymore. I've been with him for over 6 yrs! He was nice enough to give me a supply to last me a few months to give me time to find a Dr that will help me. My dr now said if by chance I'm still haveing trouble at the end of three months, he will keep helping me but he's not sure for how much longer. I'm ...

Hello. My doctor got shut down and i was on xanax. Does anyone suggest a doctor in the Denver metro area that i can go to so i can continue to get my medicine? I'm freaking out because im running low. TIA ## Hello, Dencolo! How are you? Due to the new regulations that were put in place last year, if you require such a medication on a long-term ongoing basis, you'll need to see a specialist. This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Can anyone suggest a good doctor in that area? Do you have any other doctors there that you see regularly? If so, they might be able to refer you to someone.

Does anyone have problems with the new Colorado "Recommendations" Laws that limits non-cancer patients to 120mg. per day? I have had 4 different doctors quit because it's become ridiculous for them in helping actual patients. I have been disabled since 1996 and have undergone 11 abdominal surgeries. I have never abused pain medication, nor filled one early. I understand trying to stop the illicit drug and Script abuse, but they are hurting myself and other legitimate patients. I wish there was a group who had the ability to bring a legal case against these policies, or something to help. The current 120mg. limit just isn't helping enough to stop pain, but it seems there is no choice. No wonder people turn to illicit drugs. Anyone else with the same problem? I would appre...
