I really need help finding a new doctor around south philly. All I can find is epidural shots and I do not like them, they make me feel paralyzed all day. All of a sudden my dr who was prescribing my medication wanted to cut back, I've had 3 surgeries on my foot (8 screws) also have fibromyalgia. I used to take 30mg oxy. Please email me, it would be extremely helpful. I do not want the shots!! {edited for privacy} Thanks!! - Karan ## Hello, Karan! How are you doing? Sorry about the problem that you're having. However, if you're calling around to new doctors to ask if they'll prescribe Oxycodone, which is a highly addictive controlled substance, they are all going to tell you no, or that they only do the shots. They view that type of thing as being drug seeking behavior. ...

I have had 2 plates and 8 screws placed in my neck and have hardware in my low back. The pain management Dr I have been going to for the past 3 yrs just released me from his practice with some bs excuse now I need to find another Dr that will write my scripts. I was only on 120 30mg oxycodone a month just enough to help me go to work and support my family and then be blessed to spend time with my family after working and not be in a ton of pain. Can anyone refer me to a new Dr that doesn't have a problem writing this same script near the South Philly or jersey area

I do no that they are better because I honestly got her one but her Dr won't up a med. Please HELP A SON HELP MOM. I HAVE A GOOD HEART N WOULD HELP ANYONE IN ANYWAY.. PLEASE I BEG U SHE DYING IN PAIN ## Hello, Anthony! How is your mom doing? I'm so sorry that she's so miserable. First, if she's spitting up blood, then she needs to seek medical attention immediately! That could be due to a bleeding ulcer, which will need treatment. And what type of doctor has she been seeing? I think it would be better for her to see a specialist, such as a pain management doctor. However, the issue here is that i...

I moved here from DE and my Dr. Is just too far of a commute. Anyone in the DE area her name is Dr. Patricia lifrak. She will prescribe ambien, Xanax, adderall, and also does suboxone treatment. Anyway all I'm concerned about is the Xanax. I have PTSD and Xanax has a different effect on me. It makes me happy, gives me energy during the day, I feel good about myself, I can relax at night bc the events that caused my PTSD occurred at night time so from 12AM-3AM i am very agitated and scared. The slighted noise makes me jump and scared. High anxiety situations actually make me vomit. I DO not take this medication daily as it is a highly addictive drug. But I do need to find a good doctor around here that will prescribe it to me. Thanks so much. ## any luck finding anyone ## I'm not...

the pharmacies in philly do not have endocet and will probably not get it until next month( March ) ## I'm sorry, this has been an ongoing problem, due to the enforcement of the regulations on how much they can order and have in stock each month. The best suggestion I can make is to speak to your doctor and see if there's an alternative medication, or a different dosage that you can take in the meantime, since some others may be in stock. Have you tried the smaller pharmacies? Anyone needing more Endocet details can find them here. ## This is still going on, unless you've been going to a certain sm. mom and pop Pharm., they either say not til the end of May or not at all. yet i know people who go to the same one i do, they get the Endo, i get IP204's. It's all who yo...

Hello...I sadly am on a regime on percocet. I am on a low dose and have been on for a very long time. My primary writes it, usually. I do go to pain management but they do not prescribe narcotics and my primary had been the one to write my percocet for me-I left it at that. Both doctors are aware of my regime and the PM doctor sends his reports to my primary doctor. The PM doctor gave me injections. They only help occasionally it's not cortisone it's something that blocks the nerves? I went to pick up my monthly script when I was told PA laws have changed so I have to find a pain management doctor that will write for narcotics because the primary now only can do so 3 or so times? I was told this at my regular Rite Aid pharmacy. So, what can I do? I don't know if this month i...

I am new to the Philly area... Actually live in Delaware County but less than 5 miles from SW Philly... I am trying to find a doctor who is liberal because I am only 23 years old... I had a doctor where I used to live but since I moved here I cannot get in touch with him... I met a lot of people out here with scripts and they say their doctors are very liberal... But they are hesitant to give their names up... I got the name of one doctor but I can't find anything out about him yet because its Saturday and his office is closed... Anybody who can point me in the right direction? I am willing to take care of you if you can do right by me... ## Hi JoeyMotz, I may not have 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 l...

Without insurance I'm between jobs ## Hello, Philly! How are you? You would still need to pay for the doctor visits, but there is an assistance program for those who are uninsured for the Suboxone film, you can call for more information on how to apply, 888-898-4818. 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. Is there anything else I can help with?

I'm having a hard time finding a pain management dr in New Jersey, I'm wiling to travel to Philly. I've been on my medicine since 2008, my doctor just suddenly stopped writing my scripts, now what. No one wants to write for what I been on and I don't know what to do. Does anyone know of a dr that can help me please!! ## Hello, Becca! How are you? Part of the problem may be due to your asking them to write for certain medications. If you're asking that, before you go in for an appointment and establish a relationship with the doctor, they're going to view that as being drug seeking behavior. Is there a chance that the doctor that was prescribing could refer you to someone? That might be the quickest and easiest way to find the help you need. Can anyone suggest a g...

Just want to know does your hair grow an inch a week yes or no. And if you stop will the hair fall out. Yes or no. ## Hello, Philly! How are you? KeraGro is just a supplement that is claimed, but not proven to help with hair growth. It's also an auto-enrollment program that automatically bills your credit or debit card, after your free trial. It may contain some nutrients that can help with the health of your hair, so it looks better, but the length of your hair and its growth rate are genetically predetermined and there is nothing you can do to change that. The best thing to do, if you want your hair to achieve its maximum growth potential, is to take a good multivitamin, if it's okay with your doctor that you do so and take good care of your hair. Regardless of what you try, t...

Looking for a Doc to prescribe me methadone for addiction treatment can't have a life on these clinics Philly especially phila programs been on methadone for a couple years, works great. Please if there is someone who can help me please contact me. If I had a doc I could have a life again tired of people who go to these clinics who don't care ## You can't receive it from a private physician for addiction treatment. Under federal law, it can only be given for addiction treatment in a clinical setting by people that are specially trained to do so. Learn more Methadone details here.

Found this in my daughters room its orange maybe peach colored and one one side it is scored with a capital K on one side and a 2 on the other. Please help me she told me it was for stomach problems. ## Hi PhillyFlavors, Based on the description provided, I found your pill to be Promethazine HCl (12.5 mg). Promethazine is primarily used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting related to certain conditions (e.g., motion sickness, before/after surgery); but has a number of other uses as well. NOTE: this pill is identified as being an orange tablet in the drug databases. For more information about Promethazine, please refer to the link below... If you have any more questions or concerns, please post back and I will be happy to help you.
