Dr That Writes For Methadone In Georgia

I have been going to a methadone clinic for 8yrs everyday. I would like to have a dr write me methadone. I have chronic back pain and it's been 5 days without my methadone. I can't think, focus or sleep and take care of my 8yr old. Please help me find a dr in Macon, Georgia.

Hello, Angela! How are you?

Unfortunately, a private practice doctor cannot legally prescribe it for you, so a clinic remains your only option.

I understand this information doesn't help your situation and I'm sorry that I don't have better news for you.

The FDA classifies this medication as an opiate, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi. I’m a longtime methadone patient, suffering postoperative pain due to over a dozen intestinal and abdominal surgeries, including nerve pain, intermittent fistulas, colitis and more. I’ve been on many different medications, tried non medicinal solutions with little success, and for the time being, methadone is what works best for me. If I’m unmedicated for more than a couple days my depression worsens as the pain becomes unbearable. I frequently feel suicidal when I’m without meds.

We recently moved to Georgia from Virginia, to stay with family, which is wreaking havoc with my anxiety and depression. It’s also been very difficult finding a doctor to continue my regimen (60mg/day, which I’ve read is normal in MMT, but I’d like to avoid going that route if at all possible). Instead, doctors here want to taper off very abruptly or refuse to prescribe at all.

I realize doctors are scared to prescribe potentially dangerous drugs, especially to new patients. However, upon seeing my extensive records transferred from previous healthcare providers, that should be mitigated.

We live in a town called Hoschton, near the Mall of Georgia. I’m willing to travel a certain distance in order to resolve this. For months we were making the long drive to VA to visit my doctor there, but it’s not feasible long term.

Please, if you know a provider in the area, share the contact information and help me find some relief!
