I Get 90 10mg Oxycodone From My Doctor Each Month - I Want To Know What Minimum He Can Give Me Per Month (Page 3)

I want to know why my dr. will only prescribe me 90 pills of 10mg oxycodone for a month yet know people that get up towards 120 a month. Because by the end of my month I have to live in pain for a week and a half before I can drive to his office wait in the waiting room and finally be see, just to get the same 90, which aren't enough.

Where do you go? My Dr stopped giving me my oxycodone. I need help please!!!

I had a back accident years ago. I was taking 20mg of oxycodone 3x per day and I felt great. Well, my Dr will NO LONGER prescribe them because it’s too much trouble!!! Any idea who will not give me any BS? Just looking to live comfortably. Thanks.

I get 120 monthly. Your 90 is only 3 per day. Can you tell him your still in pain? That’s what I asked my dr.

I get 105 it’s up to your doctor and your insurance company.
Medicare limits the amount of adderall they’ll pay for per month, but my doctor called for an exception and they granted it.
It’s up to your doctor 1st, they can tell you that you can only have 10 a month if they feel like it but they may be sticking to the 90 because they know that’s all your insurance will cover.

It’s really frustrating a lot of pain management doctors don’t know how to handle withdrawal, my last pay management doctor was still using that old oxycontin sales pitch they got them sued, she was trying to tell me that anyone taking 60 mg a day or less can stop cold turkey and not have withdrawals. I laughed at her and told her that is absolutely untrue, every time I have stopped taking pain medication over the last 10 years I have tapered down to half of a 5 mg at night, and I still have withdrawals for almost a week. At 2.5 mg, so they don’t know because the drug reps tell them that people don’t have withdrawals from this medication if they’re not abusing it.

In New Hampshire the board of medicine actually disciplined a pain management Doctor Who fired a patient for having SI after his medication was reduced so much the pain wasn’t treated anymore. The patient said he was experiencing suicidal thoughts because of the constant pain, so the doctor fired him. He complain to the board of medicine and they actually took his side. I was shocked and delighted.

Well they are right you have to talk to your PCP about all those problems, they are the ones who order the tests to check your organs, they are the ones who rule out everything else to determine if it’s the medication or if something else is happening. They are the ones you see for work ups like that. But are you taking gabapentin? Gabapentin will rot your teeth right out.

Yeah the IR medication is usually every 4-6 hours, but they don’t expect you to wake up in the night to dose so I guess that’s why 3 a day?

You can request whatever you want, you would want to request that your doctor put in your medical records that you need this. If the doctor isn’t on board, the workers comp insurance company will certainly not give it to you.

I can tell you that if I take a NSAID like that my stomach will bleed out and I will need a lot more than just opioids.

Everyone is different lots of people can’t take NSAIDS. Someday you too will get stomach bleeds from them. Then what will you take for pain?
