Need Help Finding A Pharmacy To Fill Dr. Bynes Prescriptions (Page 9)

I live in Savannah, Chatham County, Georgia. Diagnosed suffering from Degenerative Disc Disease, with Cervical Radiculopathy (one bulging disc) and Lumbar Radiculopathy (two bulging discs). These spinal problems are diagnosed by three (3) recent CAT Scans, with radiologist analyses. And yes, I have ALL of the CAT Scan CDs, and radiologist reports. I went to Frank Howard Bynes, M.D., a retired trauma surgeon, and practicing internal medicine M.D., here in Savannah, Ga, for help with severe pain control. I was written valid prescriptions for: Roxicodone 30 mg; Dilaudid 8 mg; Xanax 2 mg; Fentanyl 100mcg/hr transdermal patch; Soma 350 mg; Neurontin 800 mg. ALL, YES ALL local pharmacies, will NOT honor ANY of these prescriptions. I was a previous patient of David M. Nelson, M.D. here in Savannah, March 2010 to March 2013, and had to endure this same B.S. then, also. This medical community, with the exception of Dr. Bynes, refuses to help me- Where is their Hippocratic Oath allegiance??? I cannot work, nor even function normally each day, because of the severe pain. I have been living off of the proceeds from the Workman's Compensation settlement I received in October 2012, from the accident at Georgia Port Authority in October 2009, here in Savannah. About out of money now, and have no income. I need help with pharmacy information.

Hello. I am sorry to hear that. Have you thought about going to the manufacturer and seeing if there is a program you and your doctor could set up? The doctor will usually have paperwork for most of the drug companies. I only know because I too have degenerative disk disease, fibromyalgia, bulging discs and insomnia. No diabetes from not being able to eat on top of a few other things, but your lucky. I am stuck on a 1/2 of oxycodone every 4 to 6 hours and a muscle relaxer for bedtime. After surgeries, I am wondering what else can get added to my list, but yes talk to your doctor about your medication and see if he can get you that or they will get sent to you and be free of charge.

Re: Tired Medical Assistant (# 153)

After I saw what you wrote about him not giving U/A's to see if their drugs were in their system, EVERYTHING else you said is 100% NOT credible! Why lie on the man? I only went there for 3 months & had a U/A. My husband only went there twice and got a U/A on his second visit. I can't stand when people write stuff that are clueless, like you were there every single day doing his U/A's, apparently not.

Yes, Dr. Bynes got shut down by the DEA on the 21st. I went by his house to see what was going on...from what he told me he is under investigation by the DEA.If indeed he did surrender his license..he has a team of attorneys working on this. He tested me every other month. Yes, he used to be DEA. I saw his badge with my own eyes. Anyone that had illegal drugs in their system got kicked out, and if you didn't have any medication in your system you got kicked out. He is hoping to have this all resolved soon. According to him he is planning on going back to that office. I don't now if this is wishful thinking,or if he was trying to give me false hope. According to an ex DEA agent if he had truly done anything illegal he would of been arrested on the spot...then go to court and then giving the choice to surrender his license. He didn't mention any of this to me.

Re: Foxtrot (# 117)

First of all he would of had to be arrested...then arraigned...given a court date in order to make this kind of deal. Anyone can copy what you just wrote.He was never arrested and still has a Ga.license according to my pharmacy because I have remaining refills there.

Re: Heyo (# 101)

When you are under investigation by the DEA you have to voluntarily give up your license to practice...that is why it is called an investigation.Look that up!

I have refills also for a script that I was waiting to get filled when they came into Dr Bynes' office and closed him down. I'm saying that my Pharmacy has refused to fill my scripts.

Re: Allison (# 167)

I beg to differ with you but the earlier posted link to the state licensing board confirms that his license was voluntarily surrendered. MY pharmacy (Express Scripts on Derenne) would NOT honor remaining refills because he no longer holds a valid medical license. I wish I was wrong but I'm not.

My pharmacist is how I found out he surrendered his licenses. No pharmacy will fill anything for him but I did hear he's working at a clinic in Rincon.

If this doctor is being busted and investigated by the DEA, why would any of you want to go back to him? He has obviously lied and told conflicting stories to many patients. He takes your money and writes out bogus prescriptions he knows you will not be able to fill. That is called Theft by Deception!

Yet everyone is holding their breath, waiting for this man with wonderful ethics to come back to be their doctor? He must give out lots of really good drugs. It's going to be sad when/if he comes back, and he has to start prescribing by the Standards of the Law. You will all be scrambling to find a new doctor. SMH

Re: Desperate (# 141)

I feel for you...I just found out that Dr.Bynes got shut down...I would try looking for physicians that specialize in treating cancer!Best wishes...I am looking myself for several specialists as I have a neurological disorder called Trigenimial Neurologia,TMJD..which requires an oral surgeon.
.urological problems (urologist)and anxiety and depression (a Physciatrist).That is why I chose Dr.Bynes because he treated all my health issues and I spoke with him and there is more to the story than what people are writing on here.

He should have been shut down just for trea ting you for multiple issues he has no specialty in. You should have been seeing the specialist you really needed.

Re: Allison (# 168)

It is up to the State Medical Board if a doctor has their license suspended or revoked. A doctor has their license suspended while the State Medical Board does their investigation. This happens after a complaint has been made.

If a prescription is not a Schedule II or Schedule III a pharmacy can still fill a doctors prescriptions as long as the State Medical Board has only suspended the doctor from writing Controlled Dangerous Substances. It is common for doctors to work in jobs where they are not required to write Controlled Dangerous Substances while they are under investigation. It all depends on the allegations against the doctor.

Being there's so much wrong why aren't u on disability while u were getting workers comp. the dr's are there to support your problems if u are in chronic pain and unable to work. if you are still living on a settlement from the Ports it must have beena pretty significant amount, but stills makes me wonder why you are not on medical disability. Responding to dr Bynes he work for a community center government facility for low income and if you have a large settlement doesn't sound like u should have qualified for gov assistance. He has a Bad name all over and no pharmacy will fill his scripts.

Re: Pooler Gal (# 178)

Hi. I didn't see where you live but Hubby just got case settled w/ State Comp. I can tell U with absolute certainty that Workers Comp., at least State Comp DOES NOT pay for any Pain Medication for ANY reason. This was approved by our State Insurance Comm....so for CA work injuries you will have to 'pony up' for any pain meds, Sorry.
