Updated
HertinTim Says:
I live in near Aurora, IL. west suburbs of Chicago PLEASE SOMEONE HAS TO KNOW A DR. AROUND AURORA, IL OR W/IN 10 MILES OR SO THAT WILL PRESCRIBE THE PAIN MEDS I NEED. I'VE TRIED AT LEAST 7 OR 8 DIFFERENT MEDS. THE NORCO10'S OR EVEN STRONGER (FEWER PER DAY) WORK PERFECT, NO SIDE EFFECTS. I'VE TRIED ALL THE OTHER NON NARCOTIC AND THEY DO NOT WORK OR I FEEL LIKE A WACK FROM DRUGS LIKE LYRICA. I don't want to be treated like some drug addict...JUST LOOK AT THE MRI FROM LAST WEEK.

Fox valley pain management is a joke. I get subs from them and it's always a huge issue. I got yelled at the week.

2300 w armitage chicago il Dr villasenor is a excellent doctor who listens to his patient does not except Medicaid but does except Medicare and majority of all other insurance. Make sure you have you medical records and prescription records. He will take care of you.

I have been reading what you have had to say about meds and pain. I have been to so many docs trying to get relief for my pain but have been told over and over they do no prescribe narcotics. I am not a kid looking for a high, I am 64 years old, have gone to all the non narcotic meds. Neurontin, Lyrica, Tylenol ibu bla bla bla. None work. The only combo that gives me relief is Norco 10/325 and tramadol. When I was prescribed this combo I only took half of what I was allowed but now I get nothing that helps and to add insult to injury my PCP wants me to see a psychiatrist. My pain is true pain, not in my head. So you know I have severe fibro which I am labeled disabled and severe neuropathy and constant RLS. Any suggestions? I am so tired of hurting, my quality of life truly sucks. I don't understand why I have to be in pain just because Chicago has so many addicts. It is so not fair. Please help.

Are you a Dr by chance, and do you have any experience with any of these suggestions?
I know my message sounds desperate, but even my pharmacist, surgeon and wife(!) agree with me. In fact, the pharm and the surgeon said the extra ibu I'm taking is worse for me than then actually going back to 8-10 norc per day. I did some research on Wikipedia and it confirmed my thoughts, plus I'm still in pain. THX

Simply using the word "need" will get you booted out of any Dr. Office. You need to be very cautious and as another responder said-let your records both medical and pharmacy speak for you. Never say need,that is drug-seeking behavior to Drs.. You could say that you have been responding to pain relief,40-50% from a certain drug.

I hv the same disks slipped, used to be an athlete 2, my 'pain docs' kept prescribing & then treating me like a drug seeker afterward. Then (get this)... they'd say i need to get off the opiates (they gave me) & go get drug a Therapist , then drop me like a bad habit. So then there was a massive withdrawal (we're talking morphine Valium, + Norco, Lyrica & Ibuprophen) just 6 6mo ago i could fly down the street w my forearm crutches (great workout btw), now im mostly bedbound @ my Mom's place w home care RN's 1/So & looking forward 2 an ELECTRIC WHEELCHAIR because i only hv constant pain in my body from the waist dn w numbness & tingling. It's called "Cauda Equina Syndrome" seriously be careful with yourself especially since u camn still walk. Even if it kills you, get up & at least walk every day. Keep your triathalon mindset just do it even w/o the Norco, docs are a-holes w pain mgmt these days... i feel like docs would rather have a person bedbound & p*****g in a bedside commode than "take care" of a patient in (God forbid) pain. When a doc does actually manage my pain, im able to stand on my own 2 feet & get back to my own PT then theirs - i think maybe they're afraid we may heal up, get back in the gym, & not need them anymore..? Anyway, sorry to go off but i just dont want others to fall into their traps & end up like me. I was 1 of very few female bodybuilders.

norcos are a true opiate. it's a brand like Seven jeans compared to True religions, what's not really an opiate about it? It's a loritab or hydrocodone with 10mg of hydrocodone and 325mg of Tylenol. it's not as strong as oxycontin or percocet, oxycodone, but it's an opiate. Not sure if it was in the short story that was the question where someone claimed it wasn't but whoever it was ill let u know it is.

Mine is in Aurora at Mercy, but I won't put you through that. I did put the name of place on another message in this thread. Don't expect a good visit or doc there seriously. I found many places around here just searching online.

All I would like is some gabapentin to help sleep while getting off subs. My sub doc won't help me get off subs. He tells me not one of his patients has ever had problems jumping off 1 mg.
ha ha ha yeah right! Do I look like a moron?
