In order to get any such prescriptions filled, you'll need to stick with the state that you live in and also use a pharmacy in your home state. IE: Whatever state is on your ID or license.
There are restrictions on how much of any controlled substance that pharmacies can order and have in stock per month, so most have had to restrict their filling practices to only customers and doctors that are within a certain radius of them.
And as to Western, PA. what I'd suggest doing to find a doctor is checking with the major hospitals in the larger cities, such as Pittsburgh. They usually have an in-house pain management clinic, or have one that they can refer you to.
Do you have a GP that you see regularly that may be able to refer you somewhere?
