How To Deal With The Doc - Suggestions
UpdatedFirst off I have been reading on MedChat about new restrictions doc's are going to need to follow if they wanna stay in the pm game. Please only answer if you know what these rules are and you can name your source along with your answer.
Secondly I need some suggestions on how I can get my doc to up my script even if it's only by a tablet or 2. Currently I am on 4 60mg MS Contin daily along with up to 2, 2 15mg of Oxycodone IR 4x a day. My doc has stated to me several times that he does not like adjusting IR meds and then lastly my pm doc has asked me when we are talking about these things if he thought I could do better elsewhere in town. MY ANSWER IS NO BUT I KEEP THAT TO MYSELF. I have been on the same dose for 2 years. If it matters the doc is a certified specialist and I live in Mn.
In asking for your suggestions on how to get my dosage raised, it's not because I'm a junkie looking to get upped so I don't get sick, it's not so I can get more mèds to sell, and/or lastly it's not for any sick, illegal, or immoral reason your trying to think. I take my medicine as directed and have been on the current dose for 2 years.
Lastly I should mention that when I bring this subject up to the doc his standard answer is that the human body can get used to a particular dosage and if I continue to have pain problems he may have to put me on a lower dosage to give my body time to reset itself.
If it matters I live in Mn. Please only respond if it is helpful and genuine in nature. I am considered a 100% disabled Gulf War veteran. I have had over 10 stomach surgeries (only 4 things on a daily basis to feel the pain/suffering) and I have opted out of back surgery instead opting to have pain in my back/neck area for the same 7 or 8 daily problems.
CONSTRUCTIVE ONLY. IF YOU WANNA PASS ON YOUR JUDGEMENTS AND SHOW ME YOUR LACK OF EDUCATION IN THIS AREA SAVE YOUR TIME.
Thank you to the people that did help.
