I saw a pain doc recently and he put me on oxycodone 5 mg. It doesn't work well and I took some tramadol from an old script. Should I worry about being dropped as a patient?

@painhelp,

As a second opinion, I think you should be fine using it if you were already given the Tramadol from a previous visit.

I think most doctors only become weary when it's clear to them that you trying to hide something. But as long as you keep a bottle with your name on it, the stress of random UA's/drug panels can be avoided.

However, if you're still finding yourself needing more pain relief, it sounds like it may also be a good idea to ask your doctor about other alternative medications or treatment options (such as THC/CBD concentrates available at medical marijuana clinics). This way you aren't necessarily dependent on only one form of therapy.

I hope this helps!
