Can you tell me about any doctors who can prescribe Vicodin
Dr Kelly was my pain Dr near Naperville. Just off of 59. I believe he's on Dowdy Rd. Good luck
Dr. Barngrover in Columbus, Ga. He's great! I'm sure he can help!
MS contin needed in south GA. Prescribed for parathesis and failed back surgery syndrome since 2002. Now they want to stop it and treat me like a junkie with out offering any pain relief alternative to work as well, and I've tried therapies, nerve stim, etc. without success.
Lynx, have you read the laws and rules for suspending a doctor's medical license in your state ? A doctor having their license suspended is not the same as a doctor losing their medical license and not being able to practice medicine again. Does your state's Medical Board put Disciplinary Actions against Physicians on their website ?
Thanks Mike! I only hope he's taking new patients.
BL- just how do you know that drs who over prescribe do not keep their patient records
Up to date?
How do you know that there are more abusers
In an over prescribing practice ?
Is there a public site with this info or are you
Simply using your own biased opinion. ?
I stand by my point that drs should not treat
A patient like he has done something wrong
When the Dr he was seeing has been ostracized for his prescribing record.
Also even tho technically the Guidelines are
Not laws, in the eyes of drs the damages for
Not following them is the same. We all have seen drs afraid for their license revocation
Due to them ignoring the Guidelines. Drs
Do not want to lose their life long career and
Years of training just because they did not
Adhere to guidelines being implemented by the
DEA thugs.
What is being portrayed as guidelines are really being laws in reality.
Can't fight the gov and their power over us.
Lynx, when a clinic or doctor gets into trouble for overprescribing few if any doctors want to take their patients because they are on high doses of opiates. When a patient is use to high doses they don't want to be reduced. Other doctors know this. The percentage of patients that are abusers are usually higher with a doctor that over prescribes that with those that don't.
The CDC Guidelines are not laws. It is still up to each doctor to prescribe what they believe a patient needs. But medical records have to prove the need for high doses. Most doctors that overprescribe do not keep their medical records up to date with the required information.
Yeah I thought so . Well I'm fat from being a hard core drug addict but iam in .massive amounts of pain . And i do hold myself accountable for my mistake and that mistake looks like will cost me any kind of a normal life . When did drs stop being human
BL-why would there be a problem if
the clinic got in trouble for prescribing high doses of pain meds? It had nothing to do with the patient....(actually probably nothing the clinic was doing wrong but not agreeing to adhere to bogus CDC guidelines).
We all know the CDC guidelines are completely
Inappropriate for true patients individual needs
And were made up by the untrained.....,.
A patient losing their Dr due to no fault of their
Actions should NOT be stigmatized, and should not have trouble in finding a new dr.
Makes no sense.
Hi. I'm in Memphis and need some info. Recently moved to Memphis.
Jonette, if you broke your pain contract you may find it difficult if not impossible to find a doctor that will treat your pain. Chances are good a new doctor will want to get a copy of your medical records from your previous pain doctor.
If the doctor that was dismissed for the clinic got into trouble for the way she was prescribing pain meds. That may also cause problems when trying to find a new doctor.
I too am looking for a Dr that isnt terrified to write a pain med prescription
My Dr has been dismissed from the group she was with and they sent me to a pain management clinic . 2 visits and they tell me I have to go somewhere because of a misunderstanding . I have fibromyalgia in my hands and a curved spin . Just had an MRI done on my back 2 disks are slipping . Anyway if i find a good Dr I will write you again . Im sorry you have to go threw this like I do . Its excuse my French BS
Thank you. I'll do my best to have all the ducks in order. My current PCP has gone above and beyond for me, in the past, referrals, letters, etc... Wish me luck and thanx once again.
Looking for a pain management doctor who will prescribe my husband pain meds. He has arthritis on the spine and other illnesses. We relocated from Austin, tx to Houston and didn't have any idea about all the problems around here with the pain doctors! He has a new injury and it's very frustrating when we go to appointments leaving without medication!
Tommy, it will be difficult if not impossible to find a PCP that will prescribe high doses to a new patient. A Pain Management Doctor may or may not prescribe high doses.
Be sure and get copies of your medical records before your old PCP leaves his practice.
It's 2017 now and a hello I guess is in order. I'm from NH and my current PCP is leaving practice. I'm on a high dose of opioids and need a caring PCP to take over. Any suggestions?
LOOKING HIS NAME IS DR.MATTHEW KANGAS. HE'S LOCATED IN MIDTOWN MEMPHIS.
Anyone know of a good Doctor in West Virginia?!?? Please help I can also help you in other states I would travel to Tennessee to so if you know of any good Doctors please let me know thanks
Akron Ohio. Does anyone know of a Dr.who can pprescribe the narcotic pain medication I need in this area.
Lynx, it is up to each doctor to prescribe what in their professional opinion each patient needs. Politicians have the same right to keep their medical records private that other patients do.
