I have moderate to severe Degenerative Disc Disease of Cervical Spine with severe narrowing (stenosis) along with bulging and herniated discs with severe arthritis (osteo) also in cervical spine with boney spurs. I also have Fibromyalgia, Chronic Myofascial Pain Syndrome ad Chronic Fatigue. My pain management doc has done many different procedures, non giving much relief and no long term relief. She has told me there is nothing more she can do. So, I need a Primary Care Doctor who will take over writing my Morphine and Muscle Relaxer. My current Primary Care doctor said she trusted me totally but could not write RX for opiates. I need help. I will not be able to function without some pain meds. I live in Gen Allen, a Richmond, VA suburb. Please helpp. Thank you.

Begging for help. My very young adult child has been suffering with pain due to rare conditions. Nothing ortho related. I cannot find anyone in RVA area to help. She is now terminal as there is nothing to be done and surgeries make pain worse. Her diagnosis does not qualify for palliative or hospice. Have not been able to find anyone to give RX, they all want to do injections but this can't be done because of pre existing genetic condition. Would consider alternative to opioids willing to try suboxone or methadone. I don't want to break law but am desperate to find help with someone to do pain management. Please help. It's bad enough my child doesn't have a long future maybe couple of years but what time there is shouldn't be sent suffering.

We really need help. The new laws that went into effect this year make it very difficult for PCP to see new patients with chronic pain as they are limited to only giving a 3 or 7 day supply. If it is an established pt they can do a thirty day new RX each month with a pain contract and drug panels. I want to be cautious in where I take my child because going to several doctors looking for help will get you labeled as pill seeking abuser.

Pain management is getting to be beyond insane! It's hard enough to find a doctor but now Insurance prescription plans are starting to require prior authorization for greater than seven day RX. CVS across the country is no longer going to fill any prescription greater than seven day supply. At this point I think you literally have to be dying and receiving hospice care in order to receive pain meds. Words don't describe the fury I feel because my young daughter has elected to no longer pursue treatment because the surgeries are too hard on her body and she can't get the pain management she needs and she's already started on her bucket list. Just heartbroken. My job is related to healthcare and rarely a day goes by that I don't see somebody else suffering who can't get the compassionate care and comfort they need. Wishing everybody the best of luck

Hi there, my name is Amie and I live in Fredericksburg, VA. I have been on methadone for about 12 years now as this is the ONLY med that completely works for me, but unfortunately my dr. is no longer in practice and I have been searching my butt off for a dr. that will write me the same script I use to get, but I so don't understand why in the world it has become so hard to find a good dr. that will continue to write my usual scripts. I'm so very desperate and disturbed by how doctors have been treating patients lately. Please, please if anyone knows of a doctor in the surrounding Fredericksburg, VA area please contact me. Thanks for all your help!

Hi Mike. I am in great need of pain management as you are. If I may ask, do u know of and/or would you provide me with the names of doctors who r willing to prescribe oxycodone? From what I understand there are doctors in Richmond in which payment for the initial appointment is required and then a monthly amount every month thereafter. I am particularly interested in these doctors. I appreciate your time and look forward to All of those feelings and feeling safe is heightened when we r on the phone. It's like you're right next to me. I pray that you be blessed the means of managing your pain.
