Re: Kay (# 4287)
He sounds like MY Doc. who is Russian & in the Chicago burbs. Actually, the restrictions have nothing to do with it! He is just using that as an excuse as he hates out Pres. The Pres.basically wants the major bad crap off the STREET~he isn't as concerned w/pain clinics. My drug store told me with the little I have been taking, I am not a problem, then he cut me to only 2 -5mg oxycodone a day...give me a break-now I am in pain almost ALL the time & am very limited!!! I may go elsewhere. too.
I am still searching for a Pain Physician in CT that prescribes narcotics after referrals and health summaries which will determine my need. I have been diagnosed with so many chronic sicknesses that cause stress which unsettles my entire immune system.

Re: Tony (# 145)
I have three-fractured vertebrae, which was diagnosed in 2015. I have used many alternative methods of treatment. I have taken Percocet, when treated before. I have the bottle with the last time that I had the pain medication fillled, which has been almost a year ago. I am now having some of the back pain again. You suggested a great doctor, that you went to, who seems to be very understanding. I wanted to get more details about the physician. Thank you so very much.
Re: SunnyeRose (# 4304)
I have never been in denial that I am an addict. 55 yrs now. My dear was always what happens if I have genuine pain one day and nothing will help. Well these last 5 or so yrs. I have chronic joint pain all over and have developed mod. Emphysema from abusing myself. I don't beat myself up too much anymore guess come to accept and I always took responsibility for my bad hurtful decisions. No one was ever to blame. I want to get off my opiates with suboxone. Well it's so difficult for me to give up this drug as it has become my crutch. I take 10mg oxycodone 5x/day well supposed to but depends how I lie to myself. I do not do illegal street drugs anymore. I am proud of that. I am out of control with my script. I need help finding a doctor to put me on suboxone. My doctor won't. I love in NY LI and have Medicare and Medicaid. Any advice.
Re: Sue (# 4306)
Hi Sue,
I've read in your previous post that you are moving to Florida, and that you have 2 types of insurance, so finding an addiction specialist shouldn't be hard at all. From what I've read in your post, you are certainly addicted to opiates, and could benefit tremendously from Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)! After five years of opiate use, I have been attending a MAT program for 2 months, and since day one I knew I had made the right choice! There are many that oppose treating opiate use disorder with an opiate, however, there are more that favors it due to its unique ability to mimic your drug of choice mechanisms. Therefore, this allows your brain to be manipulated into believing it has its DOC, and your body to begin healing itself. My suggestion is to contact your primary insurance company for any referrals to an addiction specialist, or recommendations to any state programs for addiction treatment!
I wish you the best, as addiction is a disease and although there are many definitions of addiction, we can be rest assured that the following definition is a relatively simple one as it encompasses components of several more complicated explanations of the disease- "Addiction is a chronic, progressive, incurable, fatal, yet treatable disease, characterized by loss of control over the use of addictive chemicals." This simply means that addiction is long term; will get worse over time; cannot be eliminated from the individual once its taken its hold; leads to death with continued abuse; but, CAN BE treated successfully!
Many will say that treating opiate use disorder (OUD) with an opiate (Suboxone, Subutex, and Zubsolv contains buprenorphine- a partial opiate agonist/antagonist that only occupies roughly 60% of the opioid receptors, but has a high affinity and bioavailability which allows it to STOP cravings and withdrawals, thus ultimately the abuse) is trading one addiction for another, but that is NOT the case AT ALL! Therefore, all I can recommend is that you research MAT, find a local MAT program and regain control over your life because addiction to opiates is indicative of loss of control, and once on this rollercoaster ride, no one knows what will happen next after that last pill or shot!

Re: Sue (# 4309)
Sue, MAT stands for Medicated Assisted Treatment, and this is a program designed to get and keep anyone addicted to or dependent on opiates off of them! Depending on when you are moving to Florida, my suggestion would be to contact your now local MAT programs, as well as any that's located in West Palm Beach Florida. Is there any reason why you can't begin a MAT program where you are now? It may be to your advantage to begin now and then have proof of your participation for when you move, by having a copy of your assessment and records from the program! Research Suboxone, Subutex, and Zubsolv; these are some of the medications used in a MAT program. I am currently on Subutex (I was allergic to the naloxone in the Suboxone) and it is absolutely phenomenal in its purpose for stopping cravings and withdrawals; even beneficial for some cases of depression. I was able to decrease my depression medication Effexor XR from 150mg to 75mg daily after a month of treatment.
In addition to the MAT program, Intensive Outpatient therapy (IOP) serves a great purpose for those of us addicted to/dependent on opiates! See, just as one would take their medication for diabetes, high blood pressure, HIV/AIDS (all illnesses) we also must take our medications, and take care of our mental and physical health in order to have quality of life! Please, research these topics and you will find an abundance of information that will bring understanding and acceptance of this disease called addiction. It also allows you the opportunity to know what treatments may be an option for you, and a path towards recovery! Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you, as I am here to help my fellow sufferer!
