Pain Doctors Ohio

Does anyone know a good pain doctor or clinic in columbus, ohio who isnt afraid to prescribe meds? My Doc just got his license revoked, Thanks ## 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). Some advice I can give you is to not specifically ask for any 'specific medication' when you see a new doctor. Just make sure to transfer or take a copy of all your medical records with you. Then, the best approach in my opinion, is to discuss up front and honestly what has or hasn't worked for you in the past. Mos...

I had a dr in Toledo prescribing me Methadone for chronic pain & he just retired & gave me my records & referred me to pain management. I went back to my family Dr with this & he also in turn is sending me 2 pain management. But I've been waiting for them to find me a dr now for almost a week. I'm almost out of my medicine & it makes u so very sick if u don't take them. I've been looking online & asking & can't seem to find a place anywhere near me. I'm between Castalia & Sandusky Ohio. I c the Cuyahoga Dr on 1of the latest posts but that is over 2 hours away. Please let me know if any places near me, thank u. ## Hi- wondering if youve found any help- yet.

does anyone know of any ohio pain clinics that prescribe oxy 30's ## In what area of Ohio? Some basic information will probably help you get more responses. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Another thing to keep in mind is to not ask them to prescribe any specific medication, when you call a new doctor to set up an appointment, because most doctors will consider that to be drug seeking behavior. ## I live near Coeur d'Alene ID and the only pain management treatment available here is a gestapo clinic that gives you painful cortisone injections-they won't increase your dosages, and then if you are taking more than your prescribed dose-they cut you off! That is what we have here. i am willing to see an out of state doc if he will help. I have 2 bulged discs in my lumbar with ...

My family doctor is no longer able to prescribe my pain medication, and has referred me to a pain management doctor that refuses to give me my medication and wants me to do physical therapy and injections that don't work and are expensive.

need specifics on docs who prescribe oxycontin in Cleveland, oh area ## There are no listings of doctors according to what they will or will not prescribe that can be searched for you. Technically, any doctor can prescribe it, but due to the new regulations that were put in place last year, if you require it on a long-term ongoing basis for the management of chronic pain, you'll need to see a pain management specialist. Do you currently have a PCP that you see regularly? If so, then the easiest thing to do would be to ask them to refer you to someone. This is 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. ## Most do but few do it illegally and also won't prescribe it...

Hello. I'm in severe pain. Need doctors from Youngstown Ohio Canton Akron + Cleveland + western Pa. My doctor got arrested now I'm left with no doctor. Anyone know where I could go? Please let me know. Thank you. ## May I ask the name of the Dr you were seeing? I don't think I'm supposed to drop names here but I'd be happy to give you names of those located here. You can very likely do a Google search for pain managers in the area. Why not have your pcp refer you somewhere? You're going to need some kind of referral there's no question of that. They don't make appointments for new patients over the phone without a faxed referral and very likely will request the records come from the referring Dr. Why? They don't trust that the patient hasn't made ...

I am a 31 yr.old mother of 3 wonderful girls! I am in the process of trying to find a doctor that prescribes methadone for pain. I live in Ohio and I do know that they do exist! Bk in 2008 my mother went to doc in Springfield and was prescribed 80 mgs a day wich is equivalent to 240 a mth. If anyone knows of a good doctor please reply and let me know! It would b greatly appreciated!!!!!! ## Hello, Renee! How are you? It isn't that doctors don't exist who will prescribe Methadone, it's that there's no listing to refer to of doctors that will prescribe any given medication, additionally, since Methadone is so highly habit forming, most doctors are reluctant to prescribe it to treat pain.

My doctor had a stoke and was prescribing me 30 mg a day of methadone for a chronic pain syndrome..I am a 51 yr old that has never abused drugs!! Does anyone know a dr. or pain dr. that is willing to prescribe this to me..Either in Col, ohio, or Springfield ohio!! Thanks for your time!! ## You'll most likely need to see a pain management specialist, due to the new regulations that were put in place at the beginning of the year. Due to the increased rates of over prescribing and improper prescribing, the DEA and FDA are making it harder for general practitioners and surgeons to prescribe such medications for long-term use and most people that need them must be referred to pain management.

Does anyone know of any doctors in the Dayton, Ohio area that prescribe narcotics for Fibromyalgia? I have just moved to the area and have never had an issue finding a doctor for this, but now they tell you upfront that they dont prescribe narcotics for fibromyalgia. Help? Anybody? ## Hello, Sweetdeb! How are you doing? Sorry about the problems that you're having. What type of doctors have you been consulting and how have you been asking them about prescriptions? Due to the new regulations that were put in place this year, if you require medications on a long-term basis for pain management, you'll need to see a specialist. General practitioners are now severely limited in what they can prescribe, how much they can prescribe, how long they can prescribe it and why they can prescr...

its happening everywhere! the new ridiculous legislation by the gov of the state of ohio is beyond overzealous and its tying the hands of pain mgt MD's to the point that the doctors are simply dumping the discipline altogether. meanwhile patients are being kicked to the curb being told to find new pain mgt doctors within 30-60days? i walked into my doctor recently and the front desk clerk says hey did u know that oxycodone 30mg tabs go for 30.00 on the street? i said i was not awhere no? she said well the doctor is discontinuing patients who are on pain meds and sending them away as hes washed his hands of pain mgt altogether? sure enough i met w the doctor who explained he has resigned and hes opening his own practice w out pain patients what! basically he was forced too leave and ...

An attempt is underway to transition those to only being used for short pe...

I suffer from severe pain. I am 30 years old and I have been treated for pain and anxiety for the last 7 years. My treatment however has consisted of just vicodin or Percocet. I have scoliosis, spine is s shape, digenertive disc disease with narrowing, arthritis is my lower back and knees. Most of my pain is in my lower back but I also have undefined pain, like if I sit or stand for extended periods of time in the space between my shoulder blades and spine towards the top of my back. Recently my aunt has been giving me oxy 30mg. They completely take all my pain away quick and 2 a day lasts through the day and night.

Doctors who are willing to prescribe pain medication in Cleveland Ohio ## Hello, Anna! How are you? Unfortunately, with the stricter regulations that were put in place last year, most doctors are going to be very reluctant to prescribe controlled substances on a long-term ongoing basis for an uninsured patient. The reason being that it makes it much easier for someone to doctor and pharmacy hop. If you did get a doctor to prescribe, most pharmacies won't fill them for cash paying patients, anymore, due to the pharmacy hopping reason. It's far harder to control and keep track of the prescriptions of someone that's paying cash, as opposed to someone with insurance. Do you have a PCP that you see regularly? If so, they might be able to refer you to someone that can help. Can an...
