Need A Doctor In South Philadelphia, Pa To Prescribe Percocets For Pain.

Updated

Had disc replacement with fusing neck area, now have lower back pain from deteriorating disc and arthritis with sciatica issues. Dr. assumes it's for drug use. Sick of the looks I get. I am a 47yr old wife and mother of 2, who works full-time sitting in front of a computer all day long. Why do I have to suffer for those that get them to sell. I am so disgusted -have insurance and can't use it -please find me a doctor who will believe me and is not afraid to write what I know my body works well with!

Well, what type of doctor are you seeing? Is it just a GP or a pain specialist?

And, how are you going about getting treatment?

These 2 questions both play a role in determining if you get the help you need.

The first is because under the new laws, general practitioners and surgeons will only be allowed to prescribe such medications for short-term use, such as for a few weeks after someone is recovering from surgery or has been in an accident.

Except for a few limited exceptions, everyone else will have to see a pain management specialist for long-term treatment.

Learn more pain management details here.

And on the medication, if you are asking for a specific drug like this up front, then most doctors will see that as drug seeking behavior and will be reluctant to prescribe you anything that may help.

Learn more Percocet details here.

So, what you need to do there is just make sure that the new doctor gets a full copy of your most recent medical records, so they can see what has and hasn't worked for you, as documented by fellow physicians.

Does anyone have a doctor they can recommend in that area?

Wanted to see if you were able to find any doctors? My doc decided to stop prescribing 30s. With all these docs getting in trouble and ppl abusing the meds. I really need them for pain and never have abused or taken more than the recommended amount. I'm just someone who would like relief from this pain, so please let me know any of your findings. Thank you so much. Greatly appreciated.

I live in bucks county but work off of city line ave (trying to work with this pain is horriblee) but am willing to travel anywhere around philly or suburbs..

Isn't it disgusting these doctors won't help patients imagine having two knee surgeries one for a double meniscus tear then during physical therapy I twisted and torn the medial in addition to tearing my MCL. The surgeon the best in philadelphia refused to give any medication and my primary doctor said he would take over. He explained that even surgeons won't prescribe yet of course he is familiar with my situation he is a physician affiliated with the Top hospital

Right now I am in so much pain I have nerve damage, lower back l5 s1 screwed up from back surgery, foot drop, and rsd. Right now in to much pain to go in t o my story but I saw this post in the same area n need a doctor so badly. At the point if I don't find one soon I feel like me n my family would be better off without me. I can't take this pain much more n the cold weather is making it a million times worse. The only reason I am still around honestly is for my puppy u have no one to take care of him n he takes care of me so I would feel horrible. I will get back to u w my story a little later when hopefully not feeligible as bad as right now but if u could help me in anyway I would be in your forever debt. Tha k you so much. I was ready to just give up tI'll I seen urs n one other post today.

Looking for Dr. In Lansing Michigan area. I have severe arthritis in my neck c-4, 5, 6, 7 broken neck, bad knees and fibromyalgia and sometimes can't walk but I don't look like I'm sick. Had a former doctor put no controlled substances on my chart because I didn't bring my pills in to be counted. Never heard of such a thing. Now I can hardly move. I never abused the pills but had medical marijuna in my system. How do I get this off my chart. They wounder why people go to the streets. If this is a federal law how do we go about fighting this or getting it reversed? The hypocritical oath states a doctor is not supposed to let a human being suffer. Are they so manipulated by the insurance companies and government that they just don't care. My quaility of life sucks. Until a doctor is in the same situation as the patient they care more about the money. Anyone interested in starting a petition?

That's crazy!! I'm in so much pain I eat candy to keep my weight up. I cant sleep, eat meals, get out of bed but to go to the bathroom. My only pain dr of 20 yrs. in Philadelphia Pa. was closed by the DEA & I cant get to him (since he closed) for my records to show my surgeries & 1st pain management dr who did inj's. & physical therapy. I also saw a dr who tried to manipulate me; offered no help but opiates. Now I've got osteoporosis & back pain is worse. I don't have support like I did in the beginning of this journey. I need a dr to care to treat head to toe chronic pain. I'm up front. I need opiates. Only thing that worked for 20 yrs. All I tried for over 10 yrs did nothing but made my condition worse! Won't do it all again!

@SkinnyJoey215, could you please talk to me? I have sciatica of the cervical and lumbar spine as well as spinal stenosis and radiopathy and bulging disc that are sitting on the nerve as well as severe arthritis and had a knee replacement and need the other knee done but scared because I'm already in so much pain on most days I spend barely able to move and some days I can't even get out of bed. The drs tend to look at us for drug seeking behavior and the problem with that across the board thinking is it leaves many of us with legitimate issues and the records to prove it out in the cold. I want to get back to my life. This pain has caused me to be severely depressed and now I need therapy for that. I don't see how these doctors think they are living up to the oath they took. Can you please let me know of a dr in the Philadelphia area? {edited for privacy}. Thank you so much.
