Have been on Vicodin 5mg and Tylenol 4 for years. My doctor's office is closing down and I must find another. Feeling very stressed!!!! ## Hi! I'm very sorry that you're stressed and having to deal with this issue. However, if your doctor's office is still open for the time being, the best way to ease the transition for yourself would be to ask them to refer you to a new doctor. There have been a lot of issues on the east coast with doctors being restricted on prescribing such medications, so finding one on your own is likely to be troublesome. Have they recommended anyone, at all? Do you see a general practitioner or a pain specialist?

Injured under workers comp in Tallahassee Florida I was taking percocet and now my adjustor stopped me from seeing the doctor who was writing my pain meds does anyone know how I can get my medication and who can you report this adjustor to ## Workers comp can be quite the hassle, as I've seen from personal experience. My mom was actually going through a similar situation with her adjuster and eventually had to get an attorney to work with her on the legality of situations like this. Although I'm not completely familiar with the process involved in that, it's probably where'd I'd recommend starting if you're intent is to take action against your adjuster - in hopes of finding a new one. In the meantime, it sounds like you may also have to be open to trying other f...

i have really made back pain n just switch to a new doctor n ian trying to get the medicine for pain that i was on before until we get the pain under controll ## Hi, Dippy! What is your general location, such as the nearest big city? It's very difficult for anyone to make any recommendations without knowing that, since if someone lives in Tallahassee and knows of a doctor there, it's not going to help if you live in Texarkana.

have gone to every cvs around becayse i dont think i can go to d different pharmacy ## With a legitimate prescription, you can go to any pharmacy to get it filled, it doesn't have to be the same one that you had others filled at. It is perfectly fine to do so, as long as your aren't trying to get several prescriptions filled for the same medication. However, many areas are experiencing a shortage, right now, so you may still have trouble getting it filled. The best advice I can give is to talk to your doctor about an alternative medication that you can try, in the meantime. ## Donna Ratliff, a Florida advocate for people with pain who are having trouble getting their prescriptions filled, is planning a rally at the Florida Capitol in Tallahassee for September 10. She is raising ...
