Doctors Willing To Prescribe Pain Medication (Page 192)

Can you tell me about any doctors who can prescribe Vicodin

Sunshine, the ER is not a place for chronic pain pateints. If someone has chronic pain they need to see their dr during regular hours. One of the things that Medicaid is suppose to do is cut down on the number of ER visits for things that the patient should be seeing their regular drs for. Reducing ER visits that Medicaid has to pay for also saves taxpayer money.

The thoughts that many have with Medicaid verses Private Insurance is if Medicaid patients had to pay for their insurance or have a job in order to have it that they would use it more responsibly. Another influence may be a study done by Ameritox that showed those on Medicaid came up positive for illegal substances more frequently than those with other health insurance and self pay patients.

BL,

First off I went to the hospital for different reasons then my chronic pain. Not only that I had severe complications with the medication THE PRIVATE DOCTOR PUT ME ON!!!

And your comment about if people worked and paid for their insurance is A LOAD OF HORSE S***. No matter what insurance you have private or not, there is addiction within EVERY CLASS OF PEOPLE IN THIS NATION!!! ANY RACE, CLASS ETC. I don't believe any of the bull you put on here because I have already had 6 friends OD On heavy narcotics within THE LAST TWO MONTHS!!! Oh and for your INFO OR LACK OF, THEY ALL HAD PRIVATE INSURANCES.SO IF YOU FEEL THE NEED TO RESPOND TO ANY POSTS ON HERE, DONT RESPOND TO MINE!!! ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND DRS LIKE YOU THAT ARE CAUSING SUCH AN EPIDEMIC !!!!

Last but not least I think you should look up the dr in New Jersey who took all ins, however almost killed a few people due to lack of empathy for patients, YET HE WAS BUSTED FOR RUNNING A DRUG MILL IN CAMDEN NJ!!!!

GO KICK ROCKS!!!

Oxycodone is usually used as a fast acting medication where Oxycontin is used many times as a long acting medication. I've been on both at the same time as well for chronic pain due to Crohn's Disease and osteonecrosis.

Sunshine, you asked for explanations. The link to the Ameritox Study is below. I did not make it up. Tighter laws and guidelines are to prevent people from OD'ing on heavy medications. Maybe the dr's that your 6 friends used will start going by the new CDC Guidelines now.

BL, I have been reading your posts and others response to them. I am usually non confrontational, but it does appear you get under a lot of people's skin, and now me included. Let me tell you something, I used to have THE BEST PRIVATE INSURANCE money can buy. I was in the ER 5 days out of 7 a week, getting shot up with all kinds of high powered narcotics. Unfortunately I am on Medicaid now, I rarely go to the ER, as a chronic pain patient ER docs normally will not treat a chronic pain patient, but I have gone for other reasons. None of us asked for our pain situations we are in. I am not gonna list all that is wrong with me and bore you, but....I just want to say sometimes I think you think you know everything and I don't think you know s***. I now understand everyone's frustrations with you. Do you really think any of us want to be on disability, unable to work, have no quality of life?? No I wouldn't wish my miserable life on my worst enemy.

Sunshine& mm pls don't let BL-irritate you whoever he or she is has always been his well kept secret even tho he loves to be the"expert" that will give his advice as tho he is perfect but we are all undeserving of help.
He is a true pain in the ass, has been for as long as I have been on this forum.
Don't take his advice or let him bother you. He scews everything he says to be sadistic towards us who need help not more hurt. He is a curse that needs to be eliminated.
Best to you in endeavors for help in this time of hysteria& lies. We with chronic illnesses are being forgotten, no one is listening, but still we must stick together with encouragement for better times.
Wish someone with the money& influence could suddenly appear to help us. Not sure the election even is gonna do much to change things but at least it will perhaps allow more to be heard from those of us in need of help? Idk.
Am praying the pendulum will swing back to where it belongs very soon before too many lose lives over this political greed & self serving take over commit ing their genocide to wards us
To the point of overwhelming life loss of the innocent-sick population.
I am beyond the travesty of it all.
Less pain to all,
Lynx

Lynx,

I am not offended nor am I even letting BL get to me. I have been in my painful situation for a long time and have dealt with people worse then him/ her. I just wanted people on here to be reminded that this person is Still on this blog for whatever reason and for the new people coming in, I just want them to see ASAP who on here is true and who isn't. I love this blog and my husband gets a little annoyed sometimes cause I'm always checking up on everyone here. That's what we have to do, help each other like family. We are a small group of those with ligitimate issues who deserve to be heard. That's where I'm at with BL, it's not about winning its about taking a stand against those who still think "it's all in our heads" or this research says this and that. Those Drs are not in our shoes on a daily basis. Someone has to make it clear. So god bless and I'm praying for you and everyone on here.

MM,

I wouldn't wish my life on my worst enemy either and for that I am thankful to God that I am still able to walk and I'm not bitter. I'm not saying you are or anyone here is, but it is very easy to be but its not going to make your pain better it will only make it worse. God bless!! :-)

I am to looking for a dr who will prescribe me heavier pain meds as that is the only thing that allows me to live my life in a normal fasion and continue to work. I suffer from 3 herniated discs in lower back and sciatic pain. I have mri results proving this condition. Saw a couple dr's and they gave me 1 min of their time and walked out of the room. Sure hope they get the same condition and suffer as I do.

Greetings,
I am a pain mgmt patient, and have been for 15 years. We are moving out of FL, to the Toledo Ohio area, and I have no clue as to who is a decent pain mgmt MD/facility...that isn't going to have me running the gammit of (ESI, discograms, electromyogram, etc) and is a good listener, actually cares about my quality of life and continuing the medication regiment that I'm currently on. I have every film, study, lab, post operative and medical report...but don't want to be treated like some junky...looking for medications to get "loaded on" as some form of recreation.
If anyone has a reputable MD, I couldn't possibly thank you enough for the referral.

Respectfully
