Pain Management Dr. Around Nashville, Tn (Page 9)

I just moved to Nashville and need a Dr. to continue writing my Oxycodone 30mg 4/day. I have medical records & MRI showing I actually need the medication. I can get a referral if needed. I appreciate ANY help. Thank you!

Can you share your doctor's information? I need to leave cps as they have cut me off my Klonopin suddenly because they don’t prescribe anymore and had me on oxymorphone for 6 months due to my C spine only to take me off and say long acting isn’t necessary for my C spine because my disc bulge is mild to moderate; also telling me on that same day that they will no longer prescribe oxymorphone either way and suddenly stopped me on it. I’m back to the same dosage I’ve been on for over a year of Roxicodone 15mg 4x a day and that’s the highest they go now. I have DDD arthritis and fibromyalgia. I need a doc who will put me back on my oxymorphone as it was the only thing helping. I was doing so well I enrolled in school and had to quit when I was stopped on my long acting due to the pain. I had an accident in July and they only would recheck C spine and thoracic regions, completely ignoring my lower back.

Good luck!! When they stopped taking my ins. I noticed my Fentanyl (which they shouldve never given me) was cut in half. I went back to inquire and nurse screamed "you pushed me! You pudhed me"! Anyhow I now 1 1/2 yrs later cant find any doc who isnt part of CPS! What a racket!

Brad at IPC IN Hendersonville! He asked as if he was aware of oxy helping thyroid and how important thyroid health was, and then only wrote me 10mg...I explained that I had been on 30mgs for the past 6 or 7 years and he still wrote 10! He called me in for a pill count and when I arrived I explained that I thought I fired them already. (That was my intent) and they said, "oh no! You're not firing us! We're firing you!" And then wrote "reason-refused to turn up for pill count."

Re: Cook (# 161)

Yep same here! When I took my 30mgs as I saw fit, I had a vibrant busy productive life .... I stopped taking Phenytoin, which is generic Dilantin, used for nerve pain in my hands...it had been causing me to hypermetabolize and overtake the oxy for four years!!! I did the research and found what was causing it.. my use dropped considerably after quitting phenytoin.... none of my doctors knew it did that!!! My tinnitis got so bad that I had to quit school and pain got bad again so I spent most of my time in bed when Im compliant.....

You clearly have no knowledge of what it is like to have a serious illness that causes pain at levels you did not know even existed. Your post is mean spirited and unhelpful. You sound like the Dark Spirit. Is this what gives you pleasure? Being cruel to sick people. You do not know any of these people. You cannot say for certain that any of them is an addict. Even if one is maybe the rest are not. Your closed-mindedness and ignorance show the same lack of maturity of which you accuse others.

Wow! What an ass you are! I am addicted to pain meds, I have been taking them since 2008 for a car wreck that caused serious issues. I pray you never know what chronic pain is, and have to rely on meds to have any kind of life.

Re: Grow up (# 151)

Dear grow up,

Why be so rude? Addicts we are not, well most of us. Some of us cannot take NSAIDs. Or Tylenol, due to interactions with other drugs or liver damage (and no, not because of alcohol).

I find it quite stunning that you can pigeonhole us, discern us to be addicts, by our posts, when our good doctors who prescribe these med to us, in person, after our check ups and mri, xrays, scans, and actually looking at us, cannot tell what is sooo obvious to you! Those dumbbells must not have the sense of a box of rocks....like you.

The reason these people post here is because they need help. Help understanding their meds, tolerance issue, and yes, they even want to know whether or not they are addicted, or just dependent. They WANT to know, for their peace of mind and wellbeing. You come barging in with your blanket statements, holier than thou attitude, and put us all in our place. Oh, of course you'll find an odd post here and there by a seeker, by addicts that need to pass a drug panel. Those seem to be the exception, not the rule. Sometimes due to poor typing, writing skills you may think you are dealing with trash addicts. Not true. If they care enough to seek out information, they are not so stupid. And should we judge them because they know what works and what doesn't? No, but they could learn a lesson on how to address their medicine and pain issues, without sending out wrong signals to their docs. I find this site very useful for understanding ALL my meds, not just pain meds.

It would do you well to keep your disparaging remarks to yourself. You really said nothing we haven't already thought of ourselves. Asked ourselves, struggled with. Thanks but no thanks for the lecture.
