How Do I Get A Prescription That Will Help With My Pain?

Updated

Where do I need to go to be prescribed Percocet, vicodin, anything along the lines of that? I suffer from endometriosis severe, intense pain and swelling in my sacrum and coccyx which puts pressure on my sciatic nerve sending pain down my legs. Legs that are not in their best health with osteo-arthritis and raynauds circulation disorder. And they want to give me tramadol and flexeril, when tramadol causes involuntary muscle spasms. Worst part I'm only 26, What do I do?

Hello, Dee! How are you?

You'll most likely need to go to a pain management specialist, due to the new restriction that were set forth by the DEA last year.

The FDA classifies this medication as 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.

Do you have a PCP that might be able to refer you to someone?

What is your general location? That might enable someone to recommend a good doctor in you area.

Hello:

Can I suggest excision surgery? I had endo and an excision surgery by a specialist and am no longer in pain. I also had raynauds that went away completely after surgery. I wish my doctors would have listened and gave me pain meds because the wait up to surgery was the most painful time in my entire life. I do hope you have found some relief by now as I'm noticing the post was from 2015.
