Truthhurts, if anyone actually believes that any restrictions will be lifted if one presidential candiate is elected over another, they are not dealing with reality.

The Britton center is an awesome clinic as long as you have chronic pain and you follow their rules, They r very friendly. The only issues i have experienced is insurance issues they dropped their contract with medica and if you can't be seen by a dr they will not fill your medication, so i had to go a week with out meds before i finally paid cash for the visit cause i couldn't change my insurance plan and as of right now they seem over booked all the time so your appt is usually a wait, But with all that said they r the most knowledgeable and friendly pain clinic i have been to!!!

I have all kinds of health issues. I was taking pain meds but I have been told to go to a pain clinic and they want me to do injections and I cannot because i have a blood clot disorder and I am on blood thinners and I have disc sitting on each other and the nerve. I have SLE Lupus fibromyalgia arthritis and too many to write. They want me to go to s shrink to ensure I am not a drug addict it makes me so mad. Please I need the phone number and name.

Doctor Thomas Romano is not afraid to prescribensure what is right for you. He is amazing and was part of the board that set fibro criteria. He has heled me so much. When he does injections into joints it seriously doesn't hurt. He is amazing and in your area.

Yeah, this is another stipulation/guidelines tossed out there by the CDC DEA and FDA. Your county board of mental health should take ya for free. Here in Colorado you don't need a referral and they don't take appointments so first come first serve. Get there early because you be waiting a long time. My doctor had no idea this is how it works....best of luck to you!!!! Hope you have a great day! I also have Medicaid (I think you said you do too) Colorado pain management center by suburban north is easy to get appointments quickly. You can get injections but there is a protocol you'll have to follow exactly. I'm scheduled for another MBB next week. First appointment with them was just last but week, I haven't had coffee yet so hope this makes sense.

Hello To ALL, I am in need of pain med. I have been on Oxycodone 5 mg 3 x a day and Oxycontin 20 mg 3 x a day for over 17 years, my husband has retired from the military. I am living in Newport News, Va. Now that my husband has retired Langley is telling me that they are not treating long term pain patients and has stopped my medicine. When telling me that I have to go to pain management. The earliest they have an appointment is Sept.14 2016. I need a doctor now not 2 more months. I cannot believe they went as fare as to tell me that since my husband is retired that this service is for active duty. I am need of of help!!! Does anyone know of a doctor that treat severe chronic pain patient here in Newport News, Hampton, Va that prescribes narcotic that I have listed.

I just have something I want to put out there and see what others say.....

1) why do I feel like new Drs in the er are afraid of pain patients ??

2) why is it at the er Medicaid patients get treated like crap but if you have private ins they kiss your butts ??

I'm sure I know the answer to 2)
But has anyone else felt this aggrivation

I absolutely completely agree. The explanation I have received from friends who work at the ER is, the ER is just to patch up life or death situations. They do not consider chronic pain a life or death situation. They believe we should be managed by pain management physicians.... Medicaid not only has a lower reimbursement rate but also requires more paperwork for preauthorizations....

BL-I cannot believe you are still here?!?!
Why have you not been banned from posting?? You are simply a broken record of doom for us all. Even if your comments contain truth, ( which by the way not always do) you make statements as if we all deserve all bad futures. You are infuriatingly judgemental with a"holier than thou" attitude.
Go screw yourself!!

Teresa, did you show pain management your social card with your social security number on it ? When someone with Medicare is receiving benefits off of a spouse or parents work record, that persons social security number is on their Medicare card. This is somethng that anyone that deals with insurance in a drs office should know. Have you called Medicare and asked them for their advice? I have worked with Medicare patients and I have never heard of anyone not taking a patient because of the social security number on their Medicare, under the circumstances that you state. Is this just one drs office or several ? If it is just one drs office, maybe the person that you dealth with was new and wasn't aware of how Medicare works in situations like yours.

skipto---NO not you--didn't see I addressed BL?? Whoever BL is no one knows however he or she never lets up with the "know-it-all" attitude with the sadistic overtones.
I am just nauseated by the constant put-downs by him (her) as we all need help not more hurt.

Please help!!!

Lynx, I did see your reference but I am not seeing any of their posts so I just thought maybe since I was the last poster.....any who I hope we all have a wonderful evening. I also pray we'll wake up tomorrow and this will all have been a bad dream!

If any of you are in Colorado I have some suggestions for physicians but things are changing at such a rapid rate who writes today may not write tomorrow ??

I realize this is a response to an old post but it has been one of the only responses i have seen that seems true to point. So many other questions I am reading and many responses seem like pill seekers. Those of us who have REAL PAIN issues are the ones in trouble. Your response was on point. I am not a veteran but my best friend was Navy & just passed away from cancer. He was 43. I go to a pain management Dr who is a neurologist. I am having issues only BC I am out of state caring for my dad who had an emergency trip to the ER & almost died. My Dr whom I have been seeing since 2008 is extremely helpful and understanding. Furthermore, since I have never been a problem patient or asked for an increase in 8 years he trusts me and helps me. I am not posting to whine about MY PROBLEM I just read your post and wanted to say thank you not only for your service (then and now) but thanks for posting such an educated and caring response. I worked on Camp Lejeune for 8 years and have much respect for all branches of our military.

Lost in LA,

I am blessed that you shared ur story and that yes we need to weed out the pill seekers. We are all here to help each other not hurt each other.

I'm a military brat of two navy veterans who both did double digit time along with my brother who is army. So I'm so blessed and thank u for your post.

P.s. Beware of BL.....
