Doctors Who Will Prescribe Pain Medication Kansas
UpdatedI too am a chronic pain sufferer, I was in a bad car accident several years ago, all my limbs were broken at once and they used my hip to rebuild one of my feet. I have a GP that has been helping me but now feels she has been letting me use too many narcotics and has abrubtly cut me off. I'm interested in controlling the pain not using the pills but it feels like nobody really cares. Is there any doctors in the Kansas City area who believe in pain management with narcotics. I believe that if you don't understand the pain of the indivdual it's hard to understand why we ask these questions. I don't want to shop for a docotor that's not what I do but what are we suppose to do if they won't help us.

Hello, JJ! How are you doing? I am very sorry about the problem that you're having.
Due to the new regulations that were put in place last year, your GP has no choice. They are restricted in what they can prescribe, why they can prescribe it and how long they can prescribe it.
If you require such medications on a long-term ongoing basis, you'll need to see a pain management specialist.
Have you discussed the issue with your GP? They should be able to refer you to someone.
Looking for chronic pain doctor In Grandview mo or kansas city mo been taking oxycontin 40 mgs 3 times a day my internal medicine doctor stop the meds an now have lots of pain please help had hysterectomy in 2010 since then I've had 23 surgeries since 2013 then was sent to the mayo clinic in Rochester Minnesota for a year
Hi. Actually that is 100% untrue. I am not only a pain patient myself but also a Nurse Practicioner for 20 yrs. What was released were only GUIDELINES FOR PCPs PRESCRIBING FOR MORE THAN 6 MONTHS. NOT REGULATIONS OR RULES. AND IF THE PATIENT IS A PRE-EXISTING LONG TERM PAIN PATIENT THOSE GUIDELINES DO NOT APPLY AT ALL. PLEASE REFER TO PPM JOURNAL FOR MORE ACCURATE INFORMATION. THAT IS THE MEDICAL JOURNAL FOR PAIN SPECIALISTS.
Hope this helps a little.
Thank you for posting accurate information. It goes a long way to be advised by a clinician who is also a pain patient and knows what she is talking about from a variety of angles.
It's the FDA and the Hollywood stars addicted to meds like oxycontin, which is why we are in this position like that guy who had a talk show at night. I see people all over kansas getting pain meds & selling them for street drugs when we, people who really need them for real pain do not get s***! I was hit by a car as i crossed a hwy in CA & it was going 55mph. I flew up 50 feet & landed on my head causing a tbi, broke all the bones on the right side at once, shattered my pelvis, broke my collar bone, my neck & 2 places in my back yet im not in enough pain to get any REAL pain control.
My husband has been living with chronic pain over 20 years. We are in Overland Park, Ks. His Doctor of 20 years is in trouble and is no longer practicing. On July 24th he gave him one month of meds, six months of records and a bogus doctor referral list. The doctors we were referred to won't help. My husband is now living in bed with no meds in pain. I know this doctor has over 2000 patients that he left. Has anyone found a Doctor to prescribe them the opioids they need to live the best quality of life? Our daughter is getting married and without his medication he cannot walk her down the isle. Please help.
I just need low dose of xanax it helps with my joints and panic attacks which ive been hospital for.
