Doctor In Richmond Va Who Will Prescribe Opiates For Severe Chronic Pain (Page 10) (Top voted first)

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.

Re: ALSFighter (# 101)

Hi, I am hoping you can give me your pm dr's info. I am suffering from ddd, 2 bulging disk, stenosis, arthritis. This starts at my C2 and continues down to C7. My left side is more severe than the right. I am in chronic pain and have a referral for pm. I have had 2 shots, that did not help and have tried pt numerous of times. My last dr had me on Oxycodone 15mg 4x a day as well as gabapentin 300mg. He no longer takes my insurance and I can not afford the office visits and the time off from work to travel to him. I just ran out of my meds and have not had any luck finding a new pm dr that will continue to help me. I thank you in advance for your help.

Hi. Could you please share with me the pm dr info? I recently have started pm and I am almost out of my meds and having no luck finding another dr that will prescribe medication. I will be having spinal surgery later this year and I am desperate. Thank you in advance.

Hi Cherry. Can you tell me if Dr. Gu was a success? My pm dr has left the area and now I'm desperate. I recently saw Dr. Holland at National Spine and Pain but he was not helpful. Would not write for Oxycodone and increased my gabapentin and prescribed a muscle relaxer and told me that if I did not get off the pain meds surgery would not help me. Thank you in advance for your help.

Re: ALSFighter (# 101)

I sure do know where you're coming from. I have had 18 surgeries since 2009 and just went through one that left me with a nurse coming out three days a week and I really need a good doctor. If you can help please let me know.

Re: Mike (# 2)

Has anyone replied here to this question? I'm literally going to go into foreclosure on my house if I don't find a good decent fair pain dr... I have been on my meds for 16 years and the ones out here in VA beach that prescribe demand insurance. This is crazy scary. I'm even willing to drive to Richmond so I can work and continue to support myself my kids and keep my house. God bless you guys. This is horrible for us legit people that play by the rules... Again good luck all of you. Please help!! I truly don't want to drive all the way out there and wind up with a horrible team of rude people... Drug panels and the rules are fine. I'm also hoping it's a 2 month cycle and not every 25 days for appts but that part no one can control. I understand. Thanks! Help please!

Hi Johnny, I sent you a message before, but don't know if you responded? I live in Spotsylvania too, have you had any luck finding a Dr? It sucks that you can't directly speak to another person. I wish they would let us people who are in pain be able to e-mail people directly. Thanks to all the people who ruined it for the people who have MRI, and need meds can't get it.

Hi,

I just read your post about chronic pain. I am in Richmond VA, and I'm in serious need of a doctor willing to trust me and prescribe opiates. Did your post lead to any names of doctors from others? I am desperate.

Thanks so much for any help you can offer.

K.D.

Hello Mike....I have been also taking 30mgs of oxycodone (150/month) and 10 mgs methadone (150/month) - from my pain management dr. For the last 6 years. - However he just retired 2 months ago and I am now desperately needing to find me a new pain management Dr. - I live in the Richmond area and wanted to see if you would be able to forward me any Doctors names or info that you may know of that I might try to get in with? Thanks for your time and any help you may offer - And I hope that you can get your pain more controlled soon.
