I have just moved to Harrisburg, PA. I found a pain management clinic who will prescribe my methadone (I have been taking Methadone for pain management for 5-6 years), however they have asked that I find another doctor. I was told by pain management clinic that I am the only patient they prescribe methadone for. Does anyone know of a doctor in the Harrisburg, PA area that prescribes methadone for pain management?
Ive been on morphine (180mg), 70mg of methadone and clonopine at various stages of my back pain treatment at the VA here in Wichita, Ks. Nothing they have tried has worked so I hit the streets. Someone had one Oxycodone Hydrothiazide 15mg tablet..I took half and it almost took all my back pain away..now all I need is the name of a Dr outside the VA who Will perscribe it for me. Ive suffered from this pain for almost 20 yrs without much relief..Please Help!!!??!!
Kay I agree with you. I find it incredible that a "counsellor" got on this forum and said that. I question the credentials of this person. Probably a user themselves, trying to bignote their miserable existence by bringing others down.
And you call yourself a counsellor (it has two L's by the way). No decent, educated counsellor would EVER get on a forum and say anything like that. Yes, there are some people on this forum looking for the wrong things, but you obviously don't have a CLUE about addiction and all it's faces. Yes, when people are in active addiction they do the wrong thing and look for drugs. I would LOVE to know who your "boss" is (if you are actually employed that is) so they can see what your opinion is on people with addictions. That would be the same as me saying to you "I hope you get cancer" but gee, I'm too nice to say that. Best of luck to you.
My buddy goes to a pain management clinic in the Limerick area (SE PA), ITS PART OF THE PMA GROUP. BEST of luck.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for a methadone Dr. In Wichita ks? Not a clinic. Please if anyone knows it would be very appreciated.
My sister has a severe genetic skin disorder and has found that Methadone works for her pain. She is currently on 10 30 mg of oxycodone a day and it doesn't work. So she would like to find a doctor in WI that will prescribe the methadone for pain. Does anyone know of any?
Last post was for a reply not for the actual question in hand
did you have to jump through Hoops with questions about addiction? and will Hartman accept medicare?
I don't know who to tell you where to find a doctor that will prescribe methadone for your area but I will tell you - Good Luck! You going into a doctors' office and stating that you want/need methadone, they are gonna throw you out. I live in rural Vermont and I am on oxycodone. There are doctors here taking new patients but as soon as they see that I am on oxy's, their suddenly full and not taking new patients. That's a lie cause I picked up the local newspaper here. The exact doctor I wanted to see, is in fact "taking new patients". Sorry but I wish you well.
I'm in hbg, if you don't mind me asking where can I go for pain management? Have you tried discovery house for methadone?
Did any of you find a good pain doc that prescribes narcotics for severe pain in PA???
Hi Missie, I am on the Suboxone program at Wyong Hospital, ( I know you want Methadone but from what I have heard they don't add anyone on to the Methadone program anymore, it's all Suboxone these days). But hey, you can only try...just ring Wyong Hospital, ask to be put through to the Wallama Clinic (it's on hospital grounds) and they will then set you up an appointment to assess you over the phone or in person. As I said, I know there are definitely people still getting dosed Methadone up there, have been for years, but as for adding new people onto the program I'm not sure. As far as I know too, you DON"T need a doctor's referral or script, they have doctor's there who are specifically trained in all things narcotic related. They are great people too, treat them with respect and they will do the same back. They are there to help. I get the feeling maybe you are further north than Wyong, but even so, they would be able to refer to somewhere closer to you. Best of luck, hope this helps a bit.
