Legal Or Illegal (Page 5)

Updated

My doctor has had me on 1 mg xanax 4 times per day for 15 yrs now and oxycodone 30 mg 4 times a day. I was supposed to see him last Thursday to get my refills but when I called to make the appointment I was told that he quit indefinitely so now I'm going cold turkey without anything...my pharmacist faxed my refill orders several times last week & they told me they couldn't find my medical chart....1st time in 15 yrs my chart got lost & my refills for xanax were never called in to my pharmacy... Can he legally quit on me without informing me here in Arkansas?

I'm sorry i must have gotten a message that wasn't for me, forgive me. But I am starting to regret my choice. I haven't slept in three months which would be fine if my hip and back didn't hurt so bad after 10 min . Maybe I could get something done. I'm seriously getting very discouraged idk what to do. I have appt with him Friday so I'll ask him what he thinks. Wish I could just get like three nights worth of Seconal ornebutol. Something but I know they'll never allow that. Oh hell know God forbid I get a couple nights of sleep, lol stupid doctors I couldn't OD if I tried , unfortunately,

Powerful sedative-hypntics prescribed in addition to opiates/opiids that can't "cover' the pain can lead to Mania. Hysteria, et. I'm not being mean to you; advising you of what it took a lot of PTS and DOCS to learn over the years, what it took generations for these docs and its to learn.I'm not sure if neuroleptics also compromised the analgesia of morphine or Dilaudid-type opiates/opioids. For a long time, my PM buds could send their pots and send them me for the tx of intractable insomnia,the pool of available hypnotics and docs wit the balls to do what ALL of us did back in the day has greatly decreased!

Untreated pain leads to panic attacks that is why the best in the U.S. and my deceased prescribed Xanax or Ativan in addition to your pain medications.

RSD destroys REMS for life. I have not had REMS in over 20 years people.

One more is that untreated pain (not enough opioids) will give you panic and no sleep.

Get your PM to prescribe what is needed if they can.

I may not be around if I do not get a replacement physician soon; I have told those close to me this is it for me. Peace people.

Kipp,

They don't do Seconal anymore babe, long off the market.

It does knock you out. A sad loss of a good damn occasional sleeper.

I've had Seconal and Nembutal pre-op. Seconal was IM and Nembutal p.o. I was hospitalized and my mentor stopped by and rained Hell on the nursing staff if they didn't "get off their asses and fill my medication order —NOW." AS with all god administrators, they were twosomes to Charlie, and these folks left me uncomfortable on 2 x .25mg of Halcyon (brand). I'm a CNS Reducer and these just don't work on me. I was mesmerized; I never saw this side of Charlie (or Chuck) but it seemed most staff knew not to release the "the 'bad' Dr. S.". Seco- and pentotbarbital are still around. I guess you have to know where to lok. And yes, I needed 200mg po of Nembutal and 200g IM for the Seconal. I did sleep, however, I called a snatch of conversation and Dr Charlie's saying, "He has his own MD. state license and DEA Registration — he could order 1,000 of those pills if he chose to, so obviously he's not a addictive risk. No, do what you're told or do I have to get the Chief of Medicine down here?

I fully agree. Nurse like P450 are as rare as diamonds but one who started with main now psychiatric a Psych NP (with an MSN) and with the prescriptive privilege as well. I alas treated nurses as equal partners in health care. What I don't like are those "streamlined" programs where the NP decides SHE/HE is the doc. I"m always open to collaboration, but that implies a discussion among equals.

Kipp, my friend you know with AS you cannot be off opioids anymore than I can. The pain will kill you.

I think BL is correct. You were an adult and assumed the risk of addiction when you "signed on for this trip." Your bottles had Controlled Substances labels, etc. Don't freak — I'm on your side and I've made out clear that part of our job is monitoring scripts, quantities, etc., not just clinical signs and symptoms.

Also, you or your attorney can check on the status if your former doc's license online or, in the attorney;s case, with a telephone call. Sometimes a agreement to retire and surrender ones license covers the multitude if sins; if that;s what happened, he;d only show a "Retired - License Surrendered for Purpose of Retirement" and no details. Disciplinary action is public information, but you have to know where to look.
