Doctor In Michigan Who Prescribes Oxycontin
(Newest replies first)
Updated
I have had Bone Spurs along my Lumbar and Some Thoracic vertebral bodies. Also, L4, L5 bulging discs. prescribed OxyContin gradually from 10 mg to 80mg over 12 years. Pain started to decrease and lowered my medication to Methadone 10mg /2 or 3 pills every 12 hours. Pain Managed until August 4th, 2014 car accident causing a burst fracture of my L4 vertebrae. The Doctors prescribed 4 x 10 mg Methadone tabs q 8 hours and 5 mg Valium for spasms . Pain relieve if I lay in bed and do nothing except go insane. They changed my Dose from 4x 10 mg Methadone tabs q 8 hours to q 12 hours which did not cover me for 12 hours. Then they added 10 mg Oxycodone/325 for break through. This is still not relieving my pain, and I'm on bed rest since Aug 4tth with OT and PT which I'm always canceling due to my pain.
First There is no surgery oner than a fusion but bone fragments are spread throughout my spine. Even if they Fuse my spine, 30 % success rate, 70% chance of repeat surgeries and an increase in pain.
Of course all patients are treated like junkies or assume they are selling their medication. I take drug panels to ensure the use of my medication and prove I'm not selling my medication.
First I need pain relieve before I start looking for a Dr. Kevorkian. Second, I do love live, and want to live live , even If I am a Addicted to narcotics due to the long term use of them. Third, I know of two countries I can travel to to obtain what ever type of medication I need to relieve my pain and live again and just might relocate just to get out of the USA and be treated under treated, I'm 54 years old with a sever injury and disgusted
If I was in Canada, I could get 200mg MSContin Tabs and 4/8/12/16/ mg dilaudid for break thought pain titrated as required once I prove my injuries are legitimate, or Mexico, or England (Where Pharmaceutical H is used to treated stage cancer pain
patients). Or I could go to a local Methadone clinic complain I'm an addict and get 300 to 600 mg of liquid Methadone per day and get pain relieve
What I want is to find a Doctor in SE Michigan/ Metro Detroit area Central suburban area if possible who will manage my medication control my pain and give me back my live. that will not treat me like junkie looking for a fix, treat me like a human who has had a severe very painful injury.
PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!

Dr Lawrence Konst @ MI Neurology Associates
Dr Lawrence Konst @ Michigan Neurology Associates - St Clair Shores and Clinton Twp Offices. Number is 586-445-9900. Dr K. is a very, very nice and very, very personable Neurologist. He always seemed to genuinely care about me, as a person, when I came in for my Appts. He would always immediately put me at ease, whenever I saw him - and would talk to me, like a real person! He never ever talked at me or talked down to me - like so many other A-hole Docs do to their patients!!! (I really do have legitimate back and neck pain/issues though, all very well documented, so I made sure to bring in all of my previous records/reports in with me on my 1st appt - which Dr K appreciated.)
During my first appt with Dr K, he took the time out of his very busy day to sit down and try to get to know me, not only a patient, but also a person. He asked me all about my previous diagnosis, treatments, procedures,etc. and what I thought about it. He also asked me what pain medications id previously tried/taken and what I found worked the best for me - and everything I told him that worked for me he gave me!
Now, unfortunately I am no longer a patient there anymore- and that is completely my fault. But, as long as you have legitimate back or neck pain/problems and have records/testing, you should be good there! Good luck!
