I need a doctor in the pgh area. I have had 11 back surgeries, chronic pain and anxiety. My pcp gave me a month to find one... Please help.

REPORT

For all the people that see the once every 2 week doctor....walgreens has stopped taking prescriptions from that group of doctors; they filled mine for the last time - this is very serious!!! Please chime in without giving out any details on our doctor and his group of doctors.......also it seems to be a witch hunt going on cause pharmacists very close to the office i go to say that the drug enforcement agency was asking a host of questions about the practice and leaving literature and pamphlets. Now i've gotta find a new pharmacy. THIS IS BAD.

Pa. is getting bad, don't blame the docs, it is the dea, they are pressuring docs to cut back on meds, I am on disability and have a really messed up back. I went to a great pain clinic for awhile, but it was closed down, I was on oxycontin when I worked, but when I went on disability, I had to pay for my meds, so the clinic I went to gave me 30 mg oxycodone, but they gave me less dosage than he did. I get 6 a day and I know they won't give me more, but I read some of these stories and I am grateful. Right now, it is harder for me to find a pharmacy. Right now, I have a good place close by.For a few years I had to drive an hour round trip to get meds. Now I get Mallincroft all of the time,I used to take Activas, which I thought was better, but you can't find them round here. Warning,If a drug store tries to give you Rhodes brand, don't take it, it is super weak.

Antman. I have been having problems with cvs too. May I ask which Walgreens you went too? I go to a small family pharmacy downtown by the courthouse now. Cvs told me they didn't have them in stock and referred me to another cvs that's open 24 hours. I called that cvs and the lady was very rude and told me that location didn't have any in stock either. I said wow that's so strange, a major chain pharmacy and no location has this particular medicine and milligram in stock. It's not like it's an unusual or strength. I think cvs in general just doesn't like dispensing narcotics, however I do know of another pharmacy that won't take scripts from our doc either. Stick to small family pharmacies rather then the chains. But do tell some more info, if possible. Like what exactly did they say to you, and did they give a reason? Thanks.

Nikki and antman

Hey guys hope ur doing well..... I read both of ur post... I fill at a cvs and since it such a small amount n it every 2 weeks they never once haven't had my meds...

I put a post on here that they habe been shutdown b4... that's y i told Nikki not give that info out.... I wouldn't be surprised if there being watched again... that's another reason I didn't want people giving hints bout where us 3 go.... the only time I've issues with cvs was when I was getting 300 30s a month plus 180 dilauid 8 mg a month also 120 2 Milogram bars plus muscle relaxer n nerve blocks..

So nikkie n antman

I go to see my doctor on friday and im going to pour my heart out of how i believe he should sue period for defaming his name just because u have alot of patients so what hes not a bad guy he follows all the rules he has discharged plenty in his time. Its just wrong what the dea is doing to doctors in general in particular my doctor and his practices.....why carmen and nikki cant us 3 discuss our two areas yours is 96 miles away from mine....but we have the same doctor we dont have to mention too many details but im upset...there is a reason walgreens corporate isnt taking them. The goverment said something to pharmacists its a witchunt ill be telling the director/owner friday morning bright and early.

Sherry, the doctors we are speaking of are in northeast pa and that's about 6 hours away from butler county. You can check propublica for doctors in your area that prescribe oxycodone and it should bring up a bunch. Good luck.

Hello, I am a retired Soldier with a plate, 5 screws in my left leg, nerve damage in my right, and a 4 inch screw holding my right clavicle together. In your post it blocks your personal contact information or whatever you posted, but I am in serious need of help as the VA only wants to give me Gabapentin. Would appreciate any help you can send me. Much thanks.

Adam sorry for your troubles. It sounds like you are really having a hard time. We can't give our doctors names on here even if we wanted too, the site reviews every post and blocks their names as well any kind of personal contact info. Some people drop hints here and there but that stopped as well because if you see it so does everyone else on this forum and then the practices get overrun with patients, when probably only half are in legit pain and need narcotics. Anyways i wish you the best of luck. My father also goes to the VA hospital, they would not prescribe him painkillers either but he asked for a referral or recommendation for pain management and they gave him a name of a doctor to go too and sent all this records over from the VA. You can try that. I'm sure you will have some luck. If they can't provide you with what you need it is up to them to send you to someone one that will be able to. You can also check a website called ProPublica and enter in your zip code, it will give you a list of docs who prescribe what you need it the area. Hope you feel better and good luck!

My husband has had 3 back surgeries and nerve pain in his legs. He was taken off Oxicontin and Oxycodone recently and is suffering. We live in NE Ohio and the government is making our doctors cut us off our pain meds. He is in a lot of pain and making mine and his life miserable. Any suggestions for doctor is PA?

I have a question for you. I was wondering if there are certain days throughout the week that would be considered better than others. To you and Carmine, nothing to worry about with me. I totally understand your guys' viewpoint in regards to sharing this info with anyone, on here or otherwise. I have been searching for the proper help for YEARS. I am planning on attending the practice. I do know you mentioned one doctor is superior to the other at this practice. I would prefer to start with the good doctor. Again, neither of you need to worry about me speaking out. I'm merely looking for help as far as to when would be the best to attend. You will not see me dropping hints or anything of that magnitude. I probably wont see much reason to post here except to keep in touch with you. From previous posts, you know I have legitimate medical conditions that are in dire need of more treatment. If you can give me some insight on your experience as to which days may be the best/or worst to go, it would be greatly appreciated. Again, nothing to worry about with me, I can assure you on that. I'd never try to blow up someone's spot. It's hard enough to find the treatment you need to live a productive life. And not to sound selfish, but I am more occupied with getting my own things under control than to be doing anything such as shouting somewhere to go for all to see. Would truly appreciate the advice.

Thanks!

Carmine,

What would you consider the best day to go? Is it better to see the other doc first rather than the "drunk doc" as you guys have called him hahaha? I'd prefer to see whichever doc would be better to start but not sure exactly what days are best. Also is it better to call in advance to set something up? Don't worry, my lips are sealed. Just looking for the help I need. Would appreciate it man. I'd talk to you personally but that seems impossible here hah. Thanks a lot dude
