San Diego Pain Doctor

I'm in chronic pain please help me. I have SEVERE arthritis, and have a 5 yr old back injury. ## I was also in a car accident, broke my teeth, suffered bruises and lacerations, had a painful hip replacement, another one on its way, and am living in chronic pain. I have been to my insurance, gone through the song and dance of getting a primary, who will not prescribe hydrocodone for the bilateral hip pain, or other residual pain. I am also undergoing the very painful reconstructive dental surgery to remove poorly placed implants that rub constantly up against my remaining infected implants causing me excruciating pain. This is chronic but I hope to be getting them removed. I am considering medical tourism since my insurance doesn't cover implants. They are considered cosmetic. I ...

I am moving to San Diego in a month or so and am prescribed morphine sulfate 2 times daily for spinal stenosis and degenerative disk disease and I'm afraid that I will have a hard time finding a doctor that will continue my treatment.I am also on flexeril, gabapentin and another med for depression.I have contacted a few doctors out there but no one seems to be willing to continue the treatment I now receive. I am a chronic pain patient with a Legitimate Condition and tired of being treated like a drug abuser because of people that DO abuse meds like this one! I've also ran the gambit of Pain Management clinics that seem to only want to inject steroids in your spine & also physical therapy and you name it. The med regiment I'm on now, work perfectly & I'm told by ...

i have polycystic kidney disease and i have severe pain in my lower backand kidneys i need a perscription for charisprodol, soma i have insurance and cash ## Soma does not sound like the correct medicine? ## Hello, Randall! How are you? I have to agree with Eddy, though. Soma is a muscle relaxant, so it's not going to help with the type of pain you're experiencing. You'll need some type of actual analgesic for that. Has your specialist prescribed anything?

Hello I live in New Jersey. I have had two back surgeries and I currently am prescribed 30mg oxycodone for pain. Before you judge me just know I have tried everything non narcotic for pain and the only way I can even get out of bed is with pain killers. I am relocating to San Diego and I need a doctor who is not afraid to prescribe oxycodone. Please help! ## Hello, Jay! How are you? There are no guarantees that a new doctor will prescribe it for you. Due to the new regulations that were put in place last year, a general practitioner will not be able to prescribe it for you, so you'll need to see a pain management specialist. The easiest thing to do would be to set yourself up with a new PCP, as soon as you arrive and have them refer you to someone. Make sure that you provide them wi...

I need help finding a Dr in east county or San Diego that will prescribe klonopin or ativan. Ive had anxiety and panic attacks plus some stress from 2 near fatal car accidents. My medical records are exstensive and do include previous prescriptions for benzos. I just was released from the hospital with an ativan script. My county or medical funded psyche won't hear of it. I understand the laws, though I am physically and mentally disabled I feel like no one will help me. I would very much appreciate being pointed in the right direction. Thank you ## Did you ever find one? I also suffer from panic attacks, amxiety and now body pain. Please help!

I've been taking methadone for a couple years and im 21 years old now, i have a great doctor and she does anything she can 2 help me but she has told me I'm very lucky countless times because 99% of doctors refuse to script methadone for pain and thats not good news for you, best bet stay at the clinic, sorry 2 let you down ## also you can only get the 40s at a clinic so if you somehow do find a doctor 2 script the methadone it will be 10mg pills, i g...

How are you? I'm very sorry about what you're going through. However, your doctor no longer has a choice in the matter. Due to new regulations that were put in place last year, there are limits on how much of anything they can prescribe for you. The only exceptions are for those suffering...

My doctor currently gives me roxicodone 30mg #360, Opana IR 10mg #180, Soma 350mg #120, and Xanax 2mg #90....the only problem now seems to be finding pharmacies willing to fill the oxy's. I was told by my pharmacy (cvc) that they now dont fill beyond 240. Anybody else have this problem in San Diego or know of a pharmacy that will honor the script? Or is this a new state-wide restriction I am unaware of? ## Hey Painman, I haven't heard anything about CVS, but it wouldn't surprise me, they've always been annoying when filling my scripts for the 30's in the past. I always found that Walgreens always had a huge supply of 30's, especially if near a hospital. IF you can't get 30's filled, I would go back to the doctor and have him split your script. Have him wr...

PF one side 80 other ## Any body know a doctor that will perscribe 80 mg oxycontin. I suffered nerve damage in my leg and also my right arm. I cannot feel anything but pain. It has almost come to the point as to where I can not sleep at night so when I wake up to go to work. I am extremely tired cause I can't sleep due to the pain. I am very worried that if I don't do something about it. I might get fired because I can't even stand for more than a couple minutes before the pain becomes so unbearable. So if any one knows a doctor that can help please let me know. I just moved to San Diego and don't know anybody which is why I am here. Hope to hear from someone soon. ## Oxycontin contains the active ingredient Oxycodone in a 12 hour time released formulation. This is a ver...

I need a new dr that will prescribe my klonopin and percocet. Either that or a mail order Ican get it thru. My dr retired. ## You can't get either one without seeing an actual doctor for a regular exam/evaluation. Those are prescribing requirements. And under the new laws, you'll most likely not be able to get both from the same doctor, since medications required for any type of long-term pain management will have to be prescribed by a pain management doctor. Learn more Percocet details here. Learn more Klonopin details here. By default that means you'll have to get your Klonopin from a different doctor. Can you post back with your general location? That will help you get more answers, since this site is open to all countries and someone knowing a doctor in San Diego isn...
