Doctors Willing To Prescribe Heavy Pain Medication In Colorado (Page 2)

I have a serious problem. My dr. had two patients start dr. shopping and has decided it is too big of a pain in his butt to continue prescribing, even though I have gotten MRIs and Xrays to prove my problems. I have over a half a dozen herniated discs in my low back, along with degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis and arthritis in my facet joints. I am currently on5 30mg oxycodone a day for breakthrough and 60mg of methadone for my long lasting meds. I REALLY need a doctor in the Denver, CO area who will not judge me because of my age, thinking I'm just some drug seeker as I TRULY need my meds to function. I am even being placed on disability until I can get my back healed because if something doesn't change I will be in big time pain for the rest of my life. If ANYONE knows of a good doctor that prescribes strong meds willingly in the Denver area please let me know. I am in desperate need of help as I am going to be SCREWED if I cannot find a good doctor. SOMEONE please help me with a doctor!!!!!

He sounds like a great guy. My doc today tried to tell me when I asked to switch my methadone to hydromorphone that 2mg of dilaudid is equal to 10mg of methadone. Which is BULLS***!!!! I know more than this dude knows. So 8mg of dilaudid would be equal to 40mg of methadone. He is high or something because that's the worst equi-analgesic conversion I've ever heard. But I think I am DEFINITELY going to try your doc. This one tried to push me into not taking xanax because "people abuse it". I'm like no duh man all these drugs are abused!!!!! I wish you could email me so we could talk in more detail. Let me try my email again. xxxxx@xxxx

So I tried putting my email up and it is under review before they will post it.. Do you have Yahoo Messenger or anything like that? Also, do they do drug tests? I'm fine with doing them but they get pricey.

And Janet, I definitely feel where you are coming from. It is incredibly frustrating to be the victim in a situation which you have no control over. I can't control what conditions I have, nor that people abuse these drugs. But I shouldn't be punished nor should any other chronic pain patient because of what other people choose to do.

Hi Tammy,

Like others I just found out the Dr. I have will not continue to prescribe RX IR opiods. She's a really nice lady, but one of her patients was causing her lots of probelms and eventually was arressted. Like other Dr's she doesnt want to continue dealing with the headache, so I am back at square one finding a doctor that can help. Im currently taking 6 30mg IR per day. I think i could take less, but right now that's what I need to be able to go to work every day to deal with my lower back pain and also not drive my girlfriend crazy with my complaints. Do you know if your doctor is taking new patitents? Everybody I have been reffered to is a sub doctor and that's the last thing I want to put in my body. I'd greatly appreciate it if you could help.

I get 6 oxyir 5mg a day, and he actually just asked if I wanted the 10's instead, so I get 180 a month but on the xanax i'm not sure yet but another person is going 2morrow also for the same thing. Hope all is good and ur pain free at least a little. But what ever works for u just tell him and that is wha u will leave with. And they will scoot u out if they think ur seeking she is real good at it. But if not no worrys. Good luck let me know how it goes.

DON'T GIVE ME THAT - YOU'RE IN PAIN AND CAN'T LIVE YOUR LIFE WITHOUT IT BECAUSE YOU ARE HOOKED ON SYNTHETIC NARTOCITS. YOU ARE ASKING DOCTORS TO PRESCRIBE YOU SOME REAL STRONG S***. BUT I AM NO ANGEL EITHER. I HAVE BEEN TAKING 3 NORCOS A DAY FOR PAST 5 YEARS. I AM ALSO IN THE SAME BOAT. HOWEVER, WHAT YOU ARE TAKING IS WAY WAY WAY STRONGER.

Just because you don't have real pain and are hooked doesn't mean everyone else is. Before you make a messed up comment about people you don't know and haven't lived in their shoes you should check yourself. You don't know what a pain in the ass it is to find a doctor that doesn't say its deppression or they don't know what it is just to turn around and say oh crap its stage 4 cancer and nothing we can do because they think like you. If you feel guilty for your own addiction then do something but don't sit on your high horse thinking that "oh if I'm addicted then everyone who takes them are too" and then make people who have enough on their plate feel bad and add more stress you should be ashamed of yourself and need to leave inocent people alone. Get a life and quit being a bully, and one day I hope you get to feel the pain of everyone that you have hurt physically or by words.

Thank you Tammy. It's truly amazing how ignorant and judgmental people can be when they are doing the very thing they are judging. The human mind blows me away sometimes. The self-centeredness is mind boggling. And even when they have NO reason whatsoever to be doing what they're doing, they still want to point the finger at other people who are doing things the right way. I think it's a defense mechanism to make themselves feel better about their hypocrisy. But hey, it doesn't matter because we know who we are and that we are justified in the things that we do. It just sucks that they are the reason things are so hard on us. Hey KILLA. I truly hope some day you feel the pain that I have to feel on a daily basis, because obviously you have never felt it and you definitely deserve to feel it. It doesn't last for a couple days, a couple weeks, or even a couple months. It's day after day after week after month after year. CONSTANTLY!!!! From the time you wake up to the time you go to sleep. EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!! Obviously you've never had chronic pain if you're sitting around talking this nonsense to people who you don't even know. If you weren't just a dope fiend you would have compassion and understanding for people in our kinds of situations. But instead, you think everyone is a druggie like you and couldn't POSSIBLY have pain, so they must just be junkies like you. You don't even have a reason to take them and you still do. Not everyone is like you just taking them for recreation. And people like you who take them to get high are the reason people like me and the rest of the chronic pain patients WHO ARE LEGITIMATE have such a hard time finding a good doctor and are looked at like junkies when we're just doing our best to get through each day, one day at a time. I am only 21, and I have the back of a 60 year old. An easy 8 or 9 out of 10 on a pain scale when I am not able to take meds. And I will never be back at 100%. So check yourself next time before you start running your mouth. 6 + Herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, arthritis in my facet joints, spinal stenosis and scoliosis and I don't have any pain???? I'm just a dope fiend???? HAHAHA. I'm holding a steady 3.8 GPA and in the honors society for my college, while still having to fight the battle of chronic pain daily. You couldn't live in my shoes for a day. You would break down and crack. So go enjoy being healthy, because the people who you feel the need to insult because of your addiction don't have that luxury. And next time you want to judge people who you don't know, do yourself a favor and DON'T!!!! It only solidifies your stupidity in the minds of those you're insulting. You're truly, TRULY ignorant. Grow up child. Grow up.

FYI, when transferring to another DR. Make sure the new Dr .gives you either / or what you want , / what works for your pain management first, before you terminate your old Dr., becouse if the new Dr. doesn't provide you with what you need ,,your old Dr. MUST (by law) keep giveing you your scripts untill you are firmly established with the new Dr. ! Worst case senerio , yourold Dr. could "ween" you if you take too long in finding a new one. As long as you don't go over 30 days , you Dr. MUST continue treating you ! I know this 1st hand, trust me, they don't want you to know this ! Best of luck to you , & all other legitimate narcotic pain management medication users !
