Doctors Who Prescribe Pain Killers In Philadelphia (Page 63)

Hi,

My current doctor has decided that it would be best to stop my monthly prescription for 30mg percocets. I have chronic back pain from skiing injuries and other sports related problems. I have never abused or taken more than was suggested. I never got "high" and was always able to work and interact with clients in a positive way. Now without the medication, the pain is becoming a distraction. Does anyone know a doctor who isn't scared to prescribe common pain killers. They are produced for a reason, but recent uptake in illegal abuse has made doctors uneasy with long term prescriptions? I live in the Philadelphia area (main line) but I am familiar with the greater Philadelphia metro area. Thank you and kind regards.

Just wanted to share this with everybody. Just came back from my pain management doctor today and although I was turned down by Medicare for a spinal stimulator they vetoed my surgery I was told that Pennsylvania will be opening its medical marijuana dispensaries in January and chronic pain syndrome is on the list for availability to receive medical marijuana so all patients who receive pain medication will be on the list for receiving a card to receive medical marijuana. If that will help you guys then hopefully you'll be able to talk to your doctor and receive a card from medical marijuana instead of getting opioids. This does not work for me so I will be staying on my meds but for those of you that this will help good luck!

Not trying to be a d**k but you realize you are asking for a response to a post that was made five and a half years ago? With all the changes that have happened in that amount of time I doubt any of the info from March 2012 would not be very reliable today. Best of luck!

Can you help find a doctor who will prescribe me oxycodone? After 13 years, he put me on suboxone but I cannot get out of bed most days and feel so depressed.

I am in agony with this pain and need a dr who prescribes pain meds in the southwest philly area. Was on a low dose of ms contin and hydromorphone for over 5yrs until I got a new dr who doesn't believe in pain meds. They don't care how much you're suffering because they're all afraid to prescribe pain meds even when the patient truly needs it. I don't drink or do drugs. I am truly sick and in unbearable pain 24/7. This forum is really no help when people are afraid to share drs names. You may think your helping people, but you are actually not helping anyone.
