New Orleans Pain Dr. (Top voted first)
UpdatedHi. I'm looking for a pain management doctor in New Orleans/Westbank/etc area. I'm 27 and some places I called only accepts 35+. My Doc of 6yrs has cancer, so he transferred his patients. I recently found a Doc, but he doesn't prescribe soma, and reduced my pain meds. I rather just find a Doc in my area, than drive to BR each month for less meds. Thanks.
I had a script of 60. Hate them, invented in Germany 100 years ago. This site will not hook you up with a connection big guy!
Just so you know Soma became s Schedule II med in Louisiana August 1, 2014. That means no refills, no calls in and you must see your dr at least every 90 days. You must have new written rx every time you get it filled.
Louisiana Medicaid will Not pay for a Pain Management Dr. It is highly doubtful that you will find any dr that accepts Louisiana Medicaid too prescribe you narcotics for back pain.
The LSU pain management will write pain meds but you will need X-ray's and a MRI.
Hi, Honey! I'm very sorry about the problems you're having.
Unfortunately, even if I researched doctors for you in that area, I have no way of knowing what age or type of patients they will accept.
And most of them are going to be reluctant to keep prescribing Soma, just as Eddy has said, due to the fact that it is becoming much more commonly abused and most will also want to reduce your pain medications. There have been many new restrictions put in place regarding what doctors can prescribe and how much they can prescribe to try to prevent over prescribing and improper prescribing.
Did the doctor you were transferred to refuse to help you?
I am in the same situation.... My Dr is sick and has retired. I suffer from chronic pain due to spondylitis. I am also looking for a new doctor...
Hi Ms. T,
Found one but my first appt is next week will post to let you know how it goes. Then I could probably pm you with info if you'd like...but from what I hear this Dr is very generous and understanding (as long as you have history on PM). Thanks everyone for your posts.
