Family Doctor Who Will Prescribe Pain Medication In South Jersey (Page 2)
UpdatedI live in southern New Jersey. I am currently prescribed roxicoden 30 mg, every 4 hrs. My family doctor has been prescribing them for me for the last 4 years. Due to new laws, she can no longer prescribe them. I'm having a hard time finding someone who will take my insurance. I have NJFamily Care.
She has chosen not to continue prescribing pain meds. The new laws give each Dr the choice to do so or not.
I been through 6 failed lower back operations damage nerve scar tissue on nerve 5 deterioration disc upper back 3 severe multiple bone spurs sticking me in my nerves and 2 bulging disc in my neck and my new pain doc that's in vineland wants to lower me to 1 40mg oxycontin and 1 20mg a day OH HELL NO I will be going to Delaware and try pain management new jersey is out there mind they do NOT CARE about us cronic pain suffers
It's tough all over as far as getting pain pills. Especially oxy and opana. They can cut you off for any reason nowadays. I used to get 30's when there wasn't even anything wrong with me. The reason I was getting prescribed was that I had an MRI and xrays to back up my claims of being hurt. My continued prescriptions were not for pain but to keep me out of wds. This went on for at least 3 years. The fun was over when I was caught drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana and having an unprescribed narcotic in me during an unrelated ER visit. I am now going to a suboxone clinic where my addiction continues.
Please, someone help! This has been excruciating thus far. I am in need of a legit pain management Doc in south jersey. I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis, diabetic neuropathy, carpal tunnel, lupus, ra, & other anti-inflammatory diseases. After the new laws, my Doc can no longer write my scripts. I'm new to the world of pain management. My life is falling apart while I search for an MD only to help me. Can anyone please help?
Re: Tara (# 20)
I pray that is still the case for you. My wife's Dr just decided they are no longer prescribing and now we are desperately trying to find someone. She has been on these medications for over 20 years now so her dose is high, but has never had an issue with failing a drug panel, random pill counts, or anything but none of that matters. Now we are searching for a doctor knowing the most likely outcome is going to be us becoming criminals in order to save her life. Great job DEA! I hope every single one of you clowns develop a severely painful, long tern, condition and receive zero help thanks to your work.
