I am curious on any doctors that earned my local area which is comes in Michigan that will prescribe methadone for pain. I currently have a full-time job and I'm not able to go to the Victory methadone clinic due to my hours at work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and helpful thank you. ## Where in Michigan are you? Have you found a Dr yet? ## Unfortunately, if you have been going to a Methadone clinic, which is traditionally used for treating drug addiction, then a regular private practice physician cannot prescribe Methadone for you, regardless of why you were going there. Under current U.S. law, it is illegal for them to do so, since the fact that you were in a Methadone clinic treatment program is in your medical records. It sucks, I really hate to have to be the b...

Can anyone help me with the name of a doctor that is not afraid to prescribe soma? I understand my prescription can not cross state line. I have been told by walgreens it has to be a local dr. ## I did not know it has to be a local Doctor as Federal Law should apply. Seems that the State is meddling in places it has no right to be, and we the patients suffer. I know in California and Arizona Walgreens wouldn't tell you this, even though the Doc might? ## Hello, Susan! How are you? To explain this issue, Soma has become more strictly controlled, since it is very commonly abused, which means that the pharmacy stock limits now apply to it, just as they do for narcotics and benzodiazepines. Every pharmacy can only stock a certain amount each month, once they are out, they are out until ...

need to find a doctor that treats pain uGK ## Hello, In regards to finding a local pain doctor, I posted below a couple webpages specific to locating pain management doctors and specialists in a given area.

You may even want to follow up in person to get a real vibe for the doctor. From what others have stated, most doctors are pretty lenient when it comes to prescribing Vicodin as opposed to some of the other stronger narcotics; so I...

Old college football players. Both Knees messed up plus terrible headaches. Need some type of pain meds. Local doctors give me a 30 day supply only. ## Hello, Larry! How are you? A 30 day supply is all that any doctor can give you at once due to government regulations. They are required to have you in for a checkup each month and to write a new prescription if the medication is a controlled substance. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I am also a retired football player. What is the first thing I need to do to get into a good doctor? ## I got fired from my doctor cause Klonopin was not in my drug panel and the doctor just two months ago wrote on my script to take as needed and was supposed to write me 2 months of my oxycodone but fired me.

Looking for a doctor in Phoenix that prescribes Alprazolam / Xanax I've been on the medication for quite a few years for my panic attacks and anxiety my doctor prescribes me 2 milligrams twice a day and I'm new to this town and I don't know how I can find a doctor to prescribe me my medications any referrals would help! Thank you and God bless! ## Love, As I'm sure your aware this benzodiazepine class medication has garnered major negative publicity over the years and finding a prescriber for a new resident/ patient can be challenging at best. Some have found positive results by contacting social services at a local hospital ,they can often recommend providers that can assist you. Best wishes, Kenie ## Were you ever able to find a doctor who will prescribe 2 mg bars?

I was injured on the job back in 2008 and sustained a herniated disc. For many years I was able to obtain prescriptions for Norco to help with my back pain, but now I am unable to get Norco due to the severe restrictions placed on the health care industry to not prescribe pain medications. I had a private doctor who prescribed Norco for me and I switched to Kaiser because this doctor I was seeing moved. I have a legitimate case here in my opinion and would appreciate any help. The stupid doctors at Kaiser are only willing to prescribe Motrin or other medications which do absolutely nothing in terms of helping me with my daly pain. Please help me find a local doctor who will help me in this matter. Thank you!

Help please! I am a 57 yr old Totally and Permanently USAF Vet. The VA Hosp I Want to do my Hip Replacement is the Wade Park VAMC in Cleve. My Medical Probs are severe and lengthy, but my only Psych need is for my increasingly-severe Panic Attacks, and my Anxiety Disorder, which had responded well to Xanax 1mg. However, in its ever-lasting quest to make a junkie of no one, The VA Dr here in SC recently tapered me off of my Xanax. In just over a month, I am moving back to the Warren-Y'town area (my locale for 40 yrs and then some) for a min of a year and a half to address the Phys. Stuff incl major Surgery.

I lost alot of my oxycodin and trying to find a doctor who will prescribe some without a huge hastle.....anyone know someone? ## The main issue here is that when someone walks in claiming to have lost their medication, but they've had a recently active prescription that was filled and covers this time period, the doctor can face serious repercussions if they give you another one. Prescriptions for controlled substances are very closely monitored by the government, a doctor has to report them all and so do pharmacies. However, if you do end up going into withdrawals, then it is possible that you may get help from a local emergency services facility. Otherwise, your only option is to wait until it is the appropriate time for you to receive a new prescription. Are there any other...

I have a spouse who has been a patient at an area Weight Loss MD clinic for many years. She has been on and off Phentermine throughout that time. I spoke to two representatives at Weight Loss MD and was very dismayed to learn that their physicians would not necessarily withhold prescribing Phentermine to a long-term alcoholic. Alcoholism is considered to be a drug addiction. My spouse has been abusing alcohol since she took her first drink, about 40 years ago. Just as disconcerting is the fact that my wife is not obese, yet she recently obtained another Phentermine prescription from a physician at her local Weight Loss MD clinic. There is reason to believe the drug is primarily being used for purposes other than weight loss. I have also observed acute signs of "phen rage" in my ...

I recently moved to San Antonio, TX and need to find a local doctor that will prescribe me xanax for my anxiety. ## I am not familiar with doctors in that area, but one piece of advice I can offer is not to call doctors and ask if they will prescribe a certain medication. When you do this, you will usually just get told no immediately, because most doctors see it as drug seeking behavior. The best thing you can do, if someone does recommend a doctor, is to set up and appointment and make sure that they get a full copy of your medical records. Most doctors are more apt to follow the prescribing practices of their colleagues, when they can see the documented information. ## alamo mental health. dr earl stenger.
