Pain Doctor Charlotte Nc

Can anybody give me some advice or their own experiences with pain management doctors in Charlotte North Carolina? I suffer from chronic pain in my neck, lower back, and primarily in my left leg from a severe knee injury in '09. I broke my Tibia, Fibula, tore my acl, pcl, and the perineal nerve. My ortho surgeon said I had a 50/50 chance of having dropfoot due to the severity of nerve damage even if the reconstructive surgery went well. Luckily that did not happen, but I did have to have a 2nd surgery about 7 months later due to unexplained pain where my pcl is located and limited movement and strength gaining. The surgery was arthoscopic and although he said he removed more scar tissue than he had ever seen(what he assumed was causing my limited motion too), he said it looked like ...

Who prescribes the most quantity in Charlotte or Gastonia N.C.? ## Had anyone heard of a pain clinic called Laudenium Medical in or around Charlotte, NC? It was mentioned on one of the posts some time ago as being a good one but may be one of those cash only deals. I cannot find them listed anywhere online in NC or SC. Maybe they have changed names? or out of business? Anyone with info. on this or any other clinic or pain physician within 40 to 50 miles North or South of Charlotte that knows what compassion, respect, & proper pain control means then please post me back. I am about at the end of my rope with this chronic back pain I can't get proper treatment for but just meeting one horse's tail after another. They either give no pain medicine at all or give something like 7...

He will write Roxy's or whatever else. He will put you on an ER opiate and then the Roxys. He is a concierge doctor though. $125 a month plus insurance copays every two months. But if I were you and you have all the documentation...just find a Pain Management doctor in your area. I didn't even know doctor's wrote roxy's f...

My Neurologist in nyc has had me on 30mg oxy (PO every 4-6 hrs), which I have been taking for the last 2 years. I just moved to Charlotte NC and I need a doctor who will do a similar routine. southeastern pain care is not one of them. I just won 10, and without any examination, this position told me that I have fibromyalgia and that I need to be on fibromyalgia medication. He didn't examine me, he didn't do anything. He did give me medication for withdrawal. Anyhelp would be appreciated so much. ## What condition are you diagnosed with? If you require such a medication on a long-term ongoing basis, you will need to see a pain management specialist, due to the new regulations that were set forth by the DEA last year. A general practice physician won't be able to help you. Hav...

In auto accident in September 2014 fracture sternum and back issue need pain medicine Dr in. Charlotte can be cash only ## Hello, Chuncy! How are you? Most will not prescribe controlled substances for cash patients, anymore… and when you find one that does, most pharmacies won't fill them, because it makes it easier for someone to doctor and pharmacy hop. Do you currently have a PCP that could refer you to someone? If so, that might be the quickest and easiest way to find the help you need. Can anyone recommend a good doctor in that area? ## hello i need find a dr that i can pay cash to and my dr want give me a referal i have been with iut my pain meds for 4 months found dr in charlotte but dr quite with out tellimg them i need a dr asap ## Had.

i am a charlotte, nc native. I've had a fusion and spinal stenosis surgeries on my back. Also have stenosis in my upper back which is inoperable because it lies on top of my lungs therefore doctor left it without continuing care. After these operations i was doing ok but having to pull wire under houses as an electrician and lift heavy wood after 1 huge piece for our wood stove put me in the bed for 6 years. I cannot sleep but my primary care doc wont prescribe anything but muscle relaxers. I have severe nerve damage but the worst part is my spine punches thru my stomach when i go to a bathroom. I feel some heavy pain meds would allow me to get this pain knocked down to where i can get the rest i need and heal what i believe is a 2nd degree tear in my low back. If you know a doctor ...

I moved to Winston Salem about 18 months ago. I'm currently driving 5 hours each month to see a primary care Dr who prescribes me fentanyl 100mcg x 48 hours + oxycodone 20mg 3day for breakthrough pain (which I feel I need to be bumped up bc since my gastric bypass my stomach only absorbs 1/3 of anybody oral meds). I'm a 3 time cancer survivor and barely make it doing regular household functions. I also have pinched sciatica nerves slipped disk herniated rupture disks cluster headaches degenerated disk disease. I'm willing to drive a couple hours away and can pass all pill counts and drug checks. I prefer a primary care that treats pain or a pain management doctor w self referral. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME ASAP!!! ## I'm in Winston Salem NC and have a pinched ...

I'm trying to find a private doctor in the Charlotte North Carolina area that will prescribe me Methadone? I travel a lot with my job and the clinic is pretty much as inconvenient as possible. Anybody know one? ## Many private doctors will not provide Methadone treatment, unless it is a last resort for pain and nothing else has worked. It requires constant regular monitoring of the patient, as well as accountability to the government for all prescriptions written. Have you considered a possible shorter-term treatment with Suboxone? Most people can successfully get off it, without severe problems, after treatment. ## I am a Director of Quality for a manufacturing facility in Goldsboro. I am new to the area. i come from KY. where I am prescribed methadone by my family Dr for pain. I r...

im trying to find a doctor to prescribe methadone in north carolina..ive been at the clinic for two years and i have chronic back pain..please help ## I'm sorry, but at what clinic for 2 years? If you're referring to a Methadone clinic, they usually only treat addiction, not pain. From what I can find, there are currently 36 of them in North Carolina, since I don't know what area you are in, I've no idea which is closest to you, but here's some: October Road Inc 119 Tunnel Road suite D Asheveille NC 28805 828-350-1000 Crossroads Treatment Center 6 Roberts Road Asheville NC 28803 828-505-3086 Footprints Recovery Community, Inc Serendipity 4515 Elmfield Court Charlotte NC 28269 (800)830-9319 Are any of these close to you? If not, let me know and I will find something c...

Looking for a doctor who will prescribe methadone in the Charlotte, nc area. I have real pain due to a car accident back in 2000 when I broke my pelvis. I moved from Jersey to Nc and got the pain meds off of someone else and when I became pregnant I was told to go to a methadone clinic. I had no idea what I was doing or that I could easily have gone to pain management. I'm willing to drive almost anywhere within reason for a doctor who can give me methadone. I've tried subutex and suboxone but neither work. Please help ## Unfortunately, if you have gone to a Methadone clinic in the past, then that is in your medical records and a regular doctor will not be able to prescribe it for you. Whether you need it for pain or not, your prior addiction treatment is what will restrict them...

looking for a clinic who just takes cash and you don't need a referral. i was booted out of the only one i knew of in charlotte because my ex-wife got into my bottle and stole some of them then i was called in for a pill count. go figure....i hate her ## Since no one really lists this type of information on their webpage, I suppose the only way to know for certain would be to call around and ask. Are you specifically looking for "pain management" doctors/clinics? If so, you can give the following links a try for locating PM doctors and specialists within your general area: {link removed because site no longer exists} wellness.com/find/pain%20management%20specialist I hope this info helps! ## i'm interested in finding ones in NC as well. even if a referral is required tho...
