UpdatedI have been diagnosed with MS 13 yrs ago, 10 yrs ago was when pain in lower back starts, 3-1/2yrs later after many mri's, cat scans, 3rd chiro found the joint in pelvis was out of alignment. this was great, he had put pelvis in alignment after 3 wks, then cervical was unbelievable painful..this is when I went from Vicoden to Fentayl.. It bothered me to be on pain meds, but wasn't functional at all, unable to get up from bed, i couldn't do anything. Found out in 2008, I had 6 herniations in Thoracic spine, 2 buldges cervical, spondolethethosis L5, SI..At this point I'm in severe pain I found a neurologist who gave me 4-60mgs oxycontin just to function...

Sorry to hear about what you're going through Donna. Although I may not have a doctor I can refer you to, I can provide you with a couple links that may be of service to you in locating pain management doctors within your general area...
All you have to do is input your city or zip code for narrowed results:
{link removed because site no longer exists}
You can give this other page a try too if you come up with different results for some reason or another:
wellness.com/find/pain%20management%20specialist
Many of the results you find (in one or both of the links above) also list a phone number for that specific doctor; I'd consider calling up a number of them to see if they are accepting new patients; some aren't, but most usually are.
I hope this info helps and wish you good luck on finding the right doctor!
Hello! I hope you can get some relief very soon!! Just be VERY CAREFUL as there are many unscrupulous Docs out there who have found that opening a "pain" clinic is easy, major money for them. Find yourself a Major Medical Center/hospital and check to see if they have a pain management clinic. Only go to one of those, NEVER to a "clinic" on a street corner that has a Pain Clinic sign. You might not even get the drug you think you are getting....
