Florence SC, I am 56, have stage 3 -4 emphysema, I osteoarthritis, have been in some kind of pain since I was 5. I wore braces on my legs for years, had a hip replacement in 1997, 2. Back surgeries in 1999, the last one was a fusion. I use oxygen 24 hours a day. I was getting 90 hydrocodone 10/350 per month, but after having the shingles that effected the nerves in my brain (4th time with shingles in 8 months).

I'm tapering off of opiate pain meds, but I'm constantly sick to my stomach. I consume marijuana, and it helps tremendously. My Dr has known that I have been using marijuana for the whole time that I've been seeing him. Well, on my last visit he not only lowered me more than we had previously talked about, but he also said that I HAD to stop having marijuana or else I'd be kicked out. So I tried, and I couldn't keep anything down. I'm NOT a pain pill seeker, I'm trying to STOP taking pain meds altogether, and just use cannabis. I'm already driving to the tri cities (I live in Yakima Wa). I'm at my wits end. Is there any Dr in Yakima that will help me? ## I'm not one bit educated in Washington's laws. I will tell you this though, here in MI we ...

What type of doctor are you seeing? If you require heavy narcotics on a long-term ongoing basis, you'll need to see a specialist, so pain management might be your best bet. The FDA lists this medication as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Can anyone recommend a good doctor in that area? Is there a chance your current doctor might be able to refe...

I need a Fort Lauderdale or Boca Raton Florida pain doctor. My doctor turned out to to be skirting the law and is currently under investigation. When he became tipped off of the investigation the doctor who for six years had been treating me out of the blue started a detox not only on me but also with his other pain patients. This occurred two weeks after my mom lossed her battle of (6) years from Alzheimer's. He never told me why this was occurring. I was so upset by loosing my best friend that I had let my guard down with this doctor. A non - doctor who owned both the doctors office and the pharmacy where I received my prescriptions fedex'ed to my home the next day after I had seen this doctor. I naively bought the pitch by the owner that having my medications dispensed thru h...
