Does anyone know a pain management doctor in Memphis or north MS, that will prescribe pain killers, that is not afraid of the FDA.

Which I have built up a tollirance too. ## I may not have a PM doctor that I can personally refer you to, but I can provide you with a couple links that may be of service to you in so far as locating pain management doctors within your general area.

Need good pain management Dr. in Memphis, Tn. willing to prescribe meds. Take new and selfpay patients. ## Hello, Unfortunately, no one can really know ahead of time what a doctor is or is not willing to prescribe, as that is based on the doctor's discretion and not just on someone else's previous appointment (especially since many doctor's are now worried about losing their licensing for prescribing too many narcotics). In regards to find a doctor- I may not know of a doctor I can refer you to, but I can provide you with a couple links that may be of service to you in so far as finding pain management doctors within your general area.

Anyone going to a good pain doctor in Memphis that is taking new patients. I am on disability and my wife and I both have r.a. The Dr. we have been seeing for over 10 years has cut our pain meds. If we need something stronger he said find a pain management Dr. He now wants to cut out our pain meds all together. Help please this is such a painful and depressing desease. ## I'm sorry that you're having such problems. New regulations have been put in place at the start of the year that are discouraging general practitioners and surgeons from prescribing pain medications for long-term use, due to the risk of improper prescribing and over prescribing, since they haven't been specially trained at managing pain. Did you try asking him for a referral? That often makes it easier to g...

I am trying to find a pain management doctor in or near the memphis area that takes amerigroup insurance. The closest one I have been able to find is in Nashville and I am a single mother of 3 so that is not practical for me to drive every month. That's a almost 4 hr drive from where I am. Please if anyone knows anyone who takes the insurance amerigroup that does pain management or even isn't a pain management doctor but will prescribe pain meds I would appreciate u letting me know. I can't go without having some kind of pain meds daily because I am a paraplegic with back pain, chronic leg spasms and severe arthritis in my right shoulder. Any help again I thank u for ahead of time. ## I'm also trying to find a Dr. in the Memphis TN area. Any suggestions?

why have doctors in memphis tn stopped prescribing pain meds? ## Based on what's been going on lately in the pharmaceutical world, my guess is that most of the rudimentary doctors have become reluctant to "over-prescribe" narcotics, because they fear that they will loose their licenses upon doing so. The same thing appears to be happening in parts of Florida. Does anyone have some extra insight on this? ## You are spot on, this is true in all 50 states, and,intensified with the so-called, "OxyContin Express" Unfortunately, out of state patients, driving from West Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky especially, to Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties in South Fla, about 3 years ago, before, Florida passed legislation, to join the Prescription Monitoring Program.

My wife is 31 years old and she suffers from huge anxiety problems and panic attacks on a daily basis. However because of her age we can’t find a doctor to prescribe her xanax because so many people her age do abuse prescription drugs and sell them. We know it’s very addicting but she had been on them for three years and we move for about a year and she substituted the Xanax with drinking a lot of alcohol. Now that we have moved to TN and there is a huge difference in how she reacts to daily life without them. She is a different person when she gets them and keeps better control of herself when on them. We feel that she should be on xanax and prozac for the rest of her life. So if anyone knows a doctor that would prescribe her xanax around the Cordova or Memphis area. ## Hel...

I was wondering if anyone would be able to give me some names of good pain Dr in west tnt? Jackson or Memphis tn area. There are many in Jackson but most do not want to continue you on your meds. I have been on my meds for 3 yrs and have had every procedure out there. I live with chronic pain and have 4 small children and my medicine is the only thing that gives me enough relief to play with them. Please any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

I was under pain management for 10 yrs in Memphis & my doc passed away. Was seeing Dr Douglas Jones but he took teaching position at University of TN. I would be willing to travel to Ark if necessary. Have Medicare & on disability & have been on pain meds for years to manage severe back pain. Need to find a doctor with some compassion. Dr. Jones was great but had to move on. ## David, Sorry to say your chances of finding a "compassionate old school doc" that is liberal with the pen and pad are no longer in existence. From one who knows, Your best bet is to seek an interventional pain management practice as they may offer a degree of relief that many would find helpful. Long term use of opioid and or opiates exclusively are not the optimal course of treatment for intr...

I live in Memphis Tn.I have been going to the methadone clinic for 13 years.I have R A and I can't afford the methadone clinic anymore.I need to find A Dr That will prescribe my methadone. I need help ASAP ## Hello, Lee! How are you? I'm sorry, but a clinic is your only option. It is illegal for a private practice doctor to prescribe it for addition treatment or maintenance, under current U.S. law, that can only be done by those specially trained in its use for such in a clinical setting. Even those that resorted to a clinic for pain, end up having to remain there, because once that is in your medial records, you have no other option. The FDA classifies this medication as an opiate, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness...

I am hoping that someone can help! I am searching for a pain management provider in West Tennessee (Jackson TN, Memphis TN, etc.... I was brutally attacked at work (law enforcement) and left for dead. Everything pretty much healed up over time except my left shoulder. It was pretty much shattered! Now it is made up of alot of screws and pins. 6 surgeries later and I am still in debilitating pain. The pain clinic I was going to shut down for being pinched for insurance fraud. It sucks because there was no warning before hand what so ever. I need a doc that will prescribe my meds and not just put it off as these inj's. will work. Dont get me wrong the inj's. help but not enough all by themselves. WITH the meds and inj's. it sets my level of pain right around a 3 so neither the...

I live in jackson, tn and i tried to get my 30mg adderall filled yesterday. The ONLY pharmacy that had any was CVS and it wasn't enough to total my rx. I was willing to forfeit some if i could just get what they had left so i don't have to drive all the way to memphis.. the "pharmacist" came to the window and told me they "don't do split prescriptions"..and this is way over the FDA regulations.. i tried to call the "dr" who prescribed this but there was no answer. "We cant....NO.. I WONT fill this rx.. this is an absurd amount... I WILL NOT FILL THIS." She slammed the drive thru window closed. DOES ANYONE KNOW IF PHARMACIES in memphis, or lexington or anywhere around jackson has any?? I would greatly appreciate any info anyone has. Thank you.

Hi! I currently am in pain management in Jackson TN Due to my Dr being on "probation" and being watched very closely by the DEA for prescribing controlled substances to a family member. The DEA is requiring many random UA's and pill counts. I do not have a problem with what is being required because I think he is an amazing Dr and honestly do not believe he would have ever treated a family member if he knew the consequences. It's just that I have 4 small children and when called I have to be in his office within 4 hours or you can longer come back! This is very discouraging to me! With the pain and symptoms I suffer from it takes me 4 hours nearly to get dressed and not to mention the children. I do understand that all pain drs require these types of things but I was tol...
