Hello, Bob! How are you? I am very sorry about what you're going through.

Due to the new regulations that were put in place last year, such a medication can now only be prescribed by a pain management specialist. A regular PCP can't prescribe it. Additionally, if you're asking for such a medication, most doctors are going to see that as being drug seeking behavior and are going to refuse to prescribe it.

It is the most potent narcotic available, so many doctors are not going to want to start you out on it, anyway. It leaves you nowhere to go later, as your body becomes tolerant to it.

This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Have you consulted a specialist, yet?
