New Orleans Pain Dr. (Page 2)

Hi. I'm looking for a pain management doctor in New Orleans/Westbank/etc area. I'm 27 and some places I called only accepts 35+. My Doc of 6yrs has cancer, so he transferred his patients. I recently found a Doc, but he doesn't prescribe soma, and reduced my pain meds. I rather just find a Doc in my area, than drive to BR each month for less meds. Thanks.

The LSU pain management will write pain meds but you will need X-ray's and a MRI.

Gudhavetosufferforthebad , if you have Louisiana Medicaid, it will not pay for management of chronic pain. If you have private insurance or Medicare, there may or may not be a problem, Which University Health, aka LSU, are you referring to .

There is no way of knowing what a doctor will and won't prescribe a particular patient. You will need copies of your medical records from your previous doctor to prove you have a medical condition that may require opiates. But that is no guarantee a doctor will prescribe what a previous doctor did. Each doctor has their own way of prescribing. But, almost all of them start new patients out on the mildest med and go from there.

If anyone has the name of a PM doctor in the New Orleans area please share. I have multiple MRIs with and without contrast, have been a CPP for over 20 years and saw my last PM doctor for seven years. He is no longer practicing. I was prescribed a long-acting and breakthrough pain medicine-Oxycontin ER and Oxycodone IR. I've never had any trouble getting medicine prescribed or passing drug panels. I just can't find the right doctor. {edited for privacy}
