I live in brunswick to and I'm still struggling to find a dr have u found anything
Hey,
Curious if you had any luck?
Any info would be great.
As you know looking for a good family doc or a pain clinic can be hard. I am only using around 50-60 mg of Morphine a day. Along with other non controlled meds.
So that is still an okay dosage. But I am new. So getting set up is difficult.
Thanks
Also if anyone can tell me why there are so many old messages on here. If there is a section to just see new info.
Thanks
Hey Big E,
I hope you're still checking this website. I saw on your message that you moved to GA from NC. I just moved to SC and cannot find a Dr that will prescribe my pain meds without wanting to do all the injections again. (I did that for years and it doesn't help anymore.) Just a way to make money! I am willing to drive. Would you please give me the name of the Dr you went to? I appreciate any help anyone can give. Living with pain is not living at all.
Dear OKCGIRL,
It is quite obvious that you have no flipping clue what REAL pain is. Imagine if you will you get a headache EVERYDAY and you take an aspirin to alleviate the pain. Now imagine that this goes on for 10-15 years and then all of a sudden the establishment tells you that aspirin wont help make your headaches go away, it was all in your head from the beginning. And so they remove aspirin from the shelves of all the stores. But now you get your headache EVERYDAY however now the pain is 10 times worse because your body got used to the aspirin and your body is telling you that it will keep the disorienting pain coming day and night until it gets that aspirin. SOOOOO, what are you going to do???
I use the headache analogy because many can relate to that. But if I use the story of debilitating chronic back pain,along with a host of other illnesses people like you just make the statement "Pfft, your just a junkie looking for a fix.". Well let me tell you one thing, first if all I wouldn't wish this kind of pain on my worst enemy, hello wouldn't even wish this kinda pain on even you for even a single day, because you have absolutely no flipping idea what your talking about. I realize you may find this hard to believe but not everyone out there is a junkie. We are lawyers, construction workers. Grocery store mgrs, hair dressers, computer geeks, teachers, etc, etc,etc. But you had better get down on your knees and thank God above that your body is in such great health and ask Him to help you to always keep it so. There is an old saying that you never really know someone until you've walked a few miles in his moccasins. Might I suggest you go to a pain Dr and see if his patients would let you shadow them for a few days, perhaps then you might have a greater appreciation and maybe even some sympathy and REAL UNDERSTANDING of what WE CHRONIC PAIN PATIENTS ACTUALLY GO THROUGH.
I need a new pain doctor in the Athens-Clarke County area. I have been in the same pain clinic for over 2 years. For 1st year I was quickly moved up between alot of medicine. I landed on roxy 15. For a while I was on roxy 15 and oxycontin 20s, but the owner didn't like that and has since moved me back to just the 15s. Now i've been on 15mg roxy 4x a day for over a year and has gotten to the point it's doing little to nothing for my pain but doctors won't up me.. I am looking for a very understanding, laid-back, people friendly pain clinic in hopes to get switched or upped to something that will help my back pain more than I currently am. If anyone knows any good, chill\relaxed doctors please reply and let me know. Thanks

Trying to see if you located another pain doctor in Georgia
Hi. I'm in desperate need of a number.
I live in Columbus ga andI am looking for a dr not scared to prescribe opanas or oxycodone to soneone who actually has bulged disks and knee problemsand neuropathy among other problems it is so hard with the government and stuff nowadays I have wellcare of ga but dont mind paying cash
All the Dr's I know of aren't taking new patients for months due to them being good docs...
New doc cut my methadone dosage 50 percent. Incapasitating pain.. Have very rare and very profound CNS injury. 1 specialist I've found in 20 years and he's at johns Hopkins in Balt. Maryland. Im in Sw GA. Can't find a Dr with any common sense.
Erick there is no way any Dr will continue your regimen of 13 30 mg oxycodone per day. That's a pill every 2 hours. Terminal patients don't even get that much. So I call bulls***. You was obviously getting that much prescribed by a crooked doc. Any how GOOD LUCK. YOU'RE SOL.
I live in Milledgeville Georgia and have been on pain medications for the last 16 years however I have from North Carolina where my dr. Just recently retired so therefore I am searching trying to find a doctor near my area that will prescribe pain medication I take a heavy amount of Oxycodone 13 30 milligram per day any help would be greatly appreciated
Has the doc been closed down yet? Georgia is notorious for not dispensing pain medication for those in dire need.
I have been a chronic pain patient for 30 yrs. About 15 years ago there was a huge focus on addressing chronic pain with narcotic pain meds. Unfortunately, politics has entered the picture while lumping drug addiction in with everything. Doctors fear for prosecution, even if they are doing the right thing. My suggestion if you have documented chronic pain, be willing to try other options in addition to pain meds, and stay away from anything you even think is a pill mill. There are legitimate docs that will help you, just may take going through a few of them to find one that complies with all regulations, meaning you will most certainly be required to use one pharmacy, sign a pain contract, random drug panels. These things while a pain will protect your treatment and your physician. Hope this helps.
If they can see through the bullsht and recognize real problems then legitimate patients would get more than a Tylenol silly. Dr's are just puzzies
I live. In eatonton ga and need help finding a doc. My Dr of 34years recently retired and I just moved to ga from NC and I take a HEAVY amount of pain meds but the folks here in ga don't want to write for the amount I've been taking for years. Help 31024
Thank you @youreanaddict. These posts are quite comical. I love how they put there when health history out there. Like I give a damn. Obviously the Dr doesn't believe it or they wouldn't have a problem. And who in the hell would give out their Dr's name. That would be so dumb. Then the poor Dr office would be flooded with addicts. People looking for liberal Dr's is hilarious. I'm so sick of addicts. It doesn't affect my meds but damn. DDD people as you get older everyone has this issue. You don't need a boat load of narcotics for relief. Leave the Dr's to the real patients. Boom. Dropping my mic.
I call bs. If you truly had Lou Gehrig's disease it should be rather easy to find a Dr. I think you're just lying to get ssomeoneto give you a name
