There is really no way we could possibly have information on what a doctor will prescribe for you.

In addition, going in and asking for a specific medication gives a doctor the impression that you are a drug seeker. In these cases, it is always best to let your medical records speak for themselves.

In the D.C. Metro area, it is also very hard to find places that will do this, at all. I lived there for awhile and I know first hand that they are very strict and picky about the treatments they provide, most pain management doctors would rather use other forms of treatment, before resorting to just writing prescriptions for medications.

In most cases, it's even hard to find a pharmacy that carries such medications, because of the high risk of theft and diversion. There are usually specialty pharmacies that you have to go to in order to get them filled.

Have you tried just consulting a general practitioner to see if they will help, or can refer you to someone who can?

Thanks but all pharmacies around here carry oxycodone. You do not have to go to a specialty pharmacy, even the mom and pop pharms carry oxycodone.

Then you are much better off for that in the VA area. I was in MD and it was very difficult to find the medications I was on there. I had to go to a speciality pharmacy.

Anyway, back to the subject, since I am not familiar with that area, I can look up some pain management places for you, if you can post back with a few nearby city/town names. I'm not familiar with much of VA and moved away from the East coast several years ago.

I know there are some excellent ones in the Rockville area of MD, but that would be quite a ways for you to travel.

There is, however, no way for us to know from the listings we have, what they will or will not prescribe, or what insurances they accept.

And to out other users: Do any of you have any doctors you can recommend?

I've looked and tried for 8 months now and haven't been able to find 1 who will prescribe anything.. No VA has a place called Virginia spine institute they don't take my insurance but. Have a family member who goes there for their pain meds (was in accident w/ me and has old injuries) they give him what he needs... Also, the only 1 in WV will not write for anything so don't waste your time. If you find one or get any other names, please post it bc I'm still looking for 1 myself. Any help is appreciated, I've been in more pain than I can explain.. I have det disc disease, pinched nerves, and thoraciic nerve outlet disease and still get put on eiother tramadol or injections, which haven't helped:(

I saw several at Westminster and Catsonville. My advice is that once you find a person you like stay with them.

I am a 30 year old with chronic pain from a cervical spine fusion a year ago and have developed issues with my lumbar spine and s-joint as a result. I'm looking for a doctor near Baltimore that can help with prescribing pain medication. Money is no problem and I have insurance. My previous pain doctor said there wasn't anything else they could do for me because they didn't want to prescribe opiates. So this is just how I'm supposed to live? PLEASE anyone with a good doctor that can help me in the Baltimore/Towson and surrounding areas.

I just moved back up here from Florida where I shattered my ankle and had multiple surgeries. My new ortho here took me off my pain meds without warning less than 3 weeks after the surgeries. I didn't think much of it because I thought the pain was going better and i had gotten down to 1 or 2 5 mg Percocet a day. Then 2 days after quitting all together it flared up and has been on fire and in pain for the last 4 days now. I need a low dosage of pain medication still and physical therapy and can't seem to find a Drs office that doesn't tell me upfront they won't prescribe any kind of medication. I don't have insurance so I'm paying cash even while unable to work. If anyone has any suggestions for northern va or Maryland please let me know...I have half of a pill left and have been putting off taking it because I don't know if I'm going to end up regretting it if the pain gets worse. Thank you. Also would like a doc that offers physical therapy if possible. Thx.

Re: Honeybee (# 242)

Honeybee thanks for your reply. My current doctor is in Greenbelt but I'm willing to go further out if needed. I would really prefer to find a primary care our PM doctor that accepts Medicaid bcuz I'm on disability and cannot afford to pay.

Re: Mommy of 4 in Pain (# 241)

Where are you in MD? I do know of a doctor, but it is cash pay only which is 275 month and 350 for the first visit. The first visit is long. And they do U/A's every 3 months. I am trying to find a new location now as I was driving too far, but they are great - Coastal Care in Denton, MD.

Re: Mommy of 4 in Pain (# 240)

Hey just checking if anyone had any updated information regarding a PM Dr it any Dr that if like it's no surprise about presribing opiates for chronic well finished pain. My Dr had not cut my Percocets down to 5/325 bid Wich is not helping at all. With the weather changing an due to my fibromyalgia I was in severe pain over the Thanksgiving holiday and ended up taking 2 Percs three times a day. I suddenly don't believe in doubling up on meds without a doctor's permission but I could barely make it through. Also I do have state insurance which I think plays a huge party in which doctor's I can see and which procedures they can perform. I was only give 60 if my pain meds and if I have to continue to didn't up I will run out before my 4 week appt. I have four done and just started a new business and can't afford to be in the bed all day bcuz of my pain. If someone could please msg me discreetly if u have any info to offer. Thanks so much

I need help finding a new PM doctor in Maryland that will prescribe ongoing opiates. I have fibromyalgia and 2 herniated discs with left & right leg radiculopathy. I am currently taking Cymbalta 60mg, Percocet 10/325 (which barely helps and was reduced gone today to bid) and Gabapentin 300mg bid (which I'm coming off of bcuz of severe anxiety and mood swings). I was changed from Lyrica bcuz although it was helping with the pain it made me feel awful. My PM doctor had given me 3 steroid injections with each helping less than the first and us now trying to wean me off the Percocet bcuz she started u have been taking it for a year and the treatment plan had not helped. I am looking for a Dr in MD that will continue to prescribe my opioids and hopefully include a long-acting opioid into my treatment without trying to send me for back surgery. I am reluctant to have the surgery bcuz bring a nurse for 18yrs I have seen too many instances where the surgery for not help or made things worse. I used to be very active and an a mother of four boys. I would just like to find a fix that will prescribe my meds so that I can get my quality of life back as my chronic debilitating pain is causing severe depression. My conditions are well documented as my neurologist ran at least 6 evaluations on me before referring me to PM. Thanks in advance.

Snappy, does this place prescribe long acting opiates like a get onto patch? I'm not interested in any narcotic pain medicine with a short half life. It's important to me that I am able to keep my pain level under control all the time. I'd rather deal with more pain all the time As long as it is manageable than deal with the highs and lows associated with short acting meds. Alsl, does this doctor prescribe non narcotic medications as well, and will they write me a refferal to have another Mri done since my Mri is a little under 3yrs old?
