Hi Ski, I read your post and I'll tell you how I did it but this should work for anyone. I mostly recommend an addictionologist or MD to help you but if you are strapped for money or doctor phobic this is what I did. If you are addicted which sounds like you are, find some AA or NA meetings to go to while doing this. I like the AA meetings better. So do most of the addicts I know too. Remember that this regiment was good for me but may not work for you. I don't know how much you are on but I was on 2 x 8 mg per day. 16mg. total. I suggest you get the strips if you can. If you have pills, a pill cutter. I would cut my strips/pills into quarters. Every 2 days I would take a quarter of a strip LESS than the prescribed amount. Get a ruler if you can't tell by looking. If you want to stretch it out more, say, every three or 4 days remove 1 quarter of a strip should work too. It might help to get on an antidepressant (non narcotic) too but you will have to go to the doctor for that. I was on 10 mg./day Lexapro. Finally you will get to a quarter of a strip a day if all works ok. I stayed on a quarter for about 2 weeks then halved the quarter for about a week or two. I was completely off of it for 6 months but decided I could not deal with my pain so I got on a much lower dose with the help of inj's and only take it if I NEED it. If you are not in pain, just quit completely. If this does not work for you, please get yourself some professional help. Good luck.

No Dr. Troy does not Rx any drug such as Adderral, Vyvanse, or any add/ADHD drugs. He doesn't prescribe xanax and rarely soma. He is however a nice guy who will accept medicaid and will Rx pain medication to those in need. He Does do drug panels for everything but marijuana.

Susan also your injury pain might have progressed and clearly your physical tolerance to medication does increase. I due to Central Pain Syndrome and systemic RSD have lost REMS sleep it is gone forever. If I sleep an hour or two that is good. It is time to see if you need upward titrations of medication.

I too lost a daughter 3 years ago my prayers are with you sister.

juanita, regular drs can write prescriptions for chronic pain patients for as long as they chose to, although many refer you to pain management. It has nothing to do with the state, it is up to each PCP how they want to handle their chronic pain patients. I don't understand what you mean about the pain drs sending you to other drs, unless it was to have updated tests. It sounds like you may not have medical evidence that proves your pain could be severe enough for you to need opiates.

p450,

By no means am I trying to bluff anyone. I'm just so tired of all the run around I get. I just wish that these doctors had the pain as we do, then they would know how we handle this.

Re: timalan (# 209)

I have 5 bulging discs, severe spinal stenosis, a pinched nerve. Severe degenerative disc disease, and spondylitis. I have to have medication just to get out of bed. I suffer with chronic pain 24/7. So some of us need our medication. Leave Chronic Pain Suffers Alone. We are not kids eating medicine to feel high. We are just trying to have some quality of life and survive!

Susan I am fighting the system today BUT DO NOT believe this for a minute! The FDA does not analyze OTC medications or natural herbs many of which can cause death. You need to work closely with your physician immediately to get resolution. Do not take risks.

juanita, you do need medical records to prove that you have a reason to need the pain meds. If you don't have this or in some cases if it is too old a pain dr may not treat you untili their is medically documented proof. They can't go by just what you tell them.

yes BL I had all of the medical records I even had another MRI ran for the pain management doctor I went to him for 5 months and for all 5 months he still would do nothing except send me to a psychiatrist which I went to and he ran all the test that pain management asked for and sent the report back to the pain management clinic I did everything they asked me to and all of the 5 months they did nothing!So I got tired of giving them money every month for nothing.
