I made the move and regret it. Unless I go to Canada I get no help here in WA state and I've traveled as far as 4hrs from my home. I now fly back to my home state to get my meds.
I’m planning a move from West Palm Beach FL. Debating over Vancouver or Portland. I had a 40 ft fall to a marble floor (6/1/15) and have been on oxycodone IR and ER. The move is predicated on me getting my meds there. Please kmp and lmk if you find a good Dr. thanks and GL

No one was able to help at any of those hospitals any other leads?
Yes I am in the same need. But I also want to stop the med I'm useing but I need help from a dr. So far no dr is willing to help me.
oh that there were such a thing as "being lucky" because we have been on opiods for so many years. I've been on several for over 20 years. My Pain Doc lost his license in December and I've lost count of how many doctors I've tried since then. It doesn't matter - they are all running scared of this state and will not prescribe over the "recommended maximum" and will take you off of everything you have been using. Moving elsewhere may be my only alternative.
If you are referring to "Seattle Pain Centers", they are long gone - they were all shut down by the state.
the fact that you have been using opioids for a very long time - like many years does not matter. There is no "grandfathering"...... have tried at least 6 new Pain Specialists since mine lost his license and it's obvious that they are all running scared in Washington. There is no negotiating - other than maybe a LITTLE leeway on how quickly you will be taken off of everything. If there is ONE doctor out there who is more interested in helping and just a little bit less scared of losing his license - I'd love to find that doctor.
Has anyone out there found any help? My boyfriend is really messed up. His is disabled, bad back, knees, shoulder, arthritis, etc. His dr. retired and did not give any good names of drs. This state is horrible, especially for people who REALLY need pain meds. He needs a new dr. asap. Thank anyone who can recommend anyone. I don't know how any of us can get ahold of one another. Is there another website you can recommend? Thank you
Is the Seattle pain management still taking new patients? I've had 5 surgeries on both knees (total 10). The 9th and 10th being total knee replacements. I also have arthritis everywhere, in pain everyday all day. Looking for a doctor that ain't afraid to write a script. Not asking to break the law just in desperate need of relief... Please help.
In need of help finding a pain dr that will prescribe pain meds.i have numerous back injuries inckuding herniated discs n cannot lift anymore i wake up everyday in pain it used to go away but now its not subsiding cannot find one that will take molina for insurance
Hi Devon,
My boyfriend and I are wanting to move , but for now he needs help here. We are willing to be your travel partners. He has 2 knees that need replaced, but they wont do it yet and a bad back. Havent had luck finding a dr. here. Can you give the name of your dr. in Pheonix? Don't know how to get ahold of you for a travel partner.
Deedee,
I was denied because I was over the limit by $3.57 in Arizona. I had coverage... I do know of a good dr in Redmond but I don't know how to exchange info as I'd like to keep him private but willing to help you out.

I'm really sorry to hear that. Can you get Medicaid or Medicare coverage? I'm medically disabled, receive my social security disability benefits & have both Medicare & Medicaid. I know how difficult it is out there & I'm really sorry for your struggle
