Columbus, Indiana Pain Doctor - Morphine 60 Mg And Oxycontin 10/325
UpdatedI live in Columbus, IN and I've been taking pain meds since 2001 and my pain doctor is trying to make me wear a pain pump and I have a pacemaker defibrillator and I don't want that. I have heard nothing but bad things about pain pumps. So I am looking for a new Dr... Can anybody help me please?

I have been on every med available for pain since 1986. I had two passion pumps installed a year apart. 1 St was a morphine pump at max dosage. Didn't work for me. The 2nd was a cocktail pump w/ morph, muscle relaxant and anti-inflammatory meds. Doc removed it in 3 months due to it not achieving desired effect. They suck without something for breakthrough pain. Hope it helps u and good luck. Not recommended by me at all
I understand there is a pain implant available that takes away all pain. Downside is you may hurt yourself and not know it. It does give off a pleasant tingling where pain is present, I would think that would tell us. I'm going to ask my pain management dr about it.
