Medicaid Louisiana Doctors That Are Suboxone Licensed (Page 3)
(Newest replies first)

I had been on Suboxone for almost 8 years. In my opinion it is a wonder drug compared to all the opiates that the pain clinics are all too willing to prescribe .I have been out of my Suboxone for a week & a half. I feel like I am dying. I can not sleep. I have a 5 month old new baby boy. I can hardly pick him up due to the pain that I am in. I hurt all over. i have been so nauseated. My doctor who 's visits were cash bases only, however medicaid would take care of the actual prescription of 60, 8 mg. At one time I WAS PRESCRIBED 4, 8 MG SUBS A DAY. i WOULD KILL JUST TO HAVE A QUARTER RIGHT NOW TO FEEL LIKE NORMAL AGAIN. My doctor decided that he no longer wants to deal with any one with medicaid due to the fact that his office does not "LIKE TO HANDLE PRIOR AUTHORIZATIONS " REALLY ......SO I am guessing that he really never gave a s*** about his patients at all because this is a horrible feeling. I would never wish this feeling on anyone. I really need to find a doctor in LOUISIANA south, that will prescribe this medication. Can you please help me?

Congratulations to you, my friend as it isn't an easy thing to do. I , too was on Suboxone for many years (too long) and I don't believe Suboxone was intended or designed to have to take it for more than a couple of years but I'm living proof that as long as we believe in our minds that we cannot live without this medication or we will die is nothing more than "stinkin' thinkin' as they say in Narcotics Anonymous. However, I did finally very slowly tapered myself down over the months prior to completely quitting and that's something I never ever thought I could do. And, ya know the addict in me struggled to a fault to refrain from continuing seeing my doctor to get that script placed in my hand every month. It's sickening to reflect and realize how sick I really was. It was just like a ritual to me and I think partially a control issue. I had to really reevaluate my morals and ask my self was I really going to compromise them after finally being able to put the Suboxone down and walk away being physically well in doing so. It's the mental, the emotional attachment I had with this Suboxone. I was taking this medication for close to 12 years. That's just simply absurd, I know. There's so much more I wanna say in hopes to give someone else a glimpse of hope but gonna sign off for now. Again, you deserve a pat on the back & I want others to comprehend it can absolutely be achieved but not until you are sick & tired of the entire addiction and everything else that comes with it.
Try kratom. Don’t go back on suboxone. That drug is the devil. I have been off of it for a month and 1/2 and I still feel like crap. Good luck to you!!

Re: Kf335 (# 187)
Wow that’s crazy. She sure acts weird.
Re: shai (# 7)
I realize this is an old post, BUT Some docs DO TAKE MEDICAID, BUT EVEN IF YOU PAY CASH FOR YOUR VISIT ( SUBS) YOUR MEDICAID WILL STILL COVER YOUR SCRIPT!!!!
Re: Sherry (# 184)
I believe she was doing crooked stuff under the table so to speak. That's why she jumped and dismissed every Medicaid patient and told us our doctor no longer was employed there. I've read online before where she has had lawsuits in the past and lost the case.
I hear you about doctors and prior authorization. My sister is going through the same problem right now and she's going to end up having to pay cash for her visits with the doctor who prescribes the Suboxone because one of her workers pushed her into getting a different insurance.
I would also like to comment on what you said about the pain medications that doctors are all too willing to prescribe and pain management clinics. Not here! You can barely get any opioids here in Wisconsin anymore.
I am so sorry for the pain You're going through right now. The doctor obviously isn't in it for his patients. That's so darn sad and I wish these doctors would have their license gained for lack of compassion. I've said it before and I'll say it again, what happened to do no harm?
Re: Sherry (# 184)
Oh, I didn't know that! She no longer has the 3 NP's working in her office who accept Medicaid?
Re: Kf335 (# 181)
Dr Susan can't take Medicaid anymore
Re: mel (# 178)
She isn't on West Congress anymore. She also has a different phone number.
Re: mel (# 178)
She use to be in Congress. She moved last year and also changed their phone number as well.
Re: Sherry (# 180)
Contact Dr. Susan Ulrich & Associates in Lafayette, La. Also, Google...."YesYouCan" and that should return results for information to another Clinic very close to Lafayette, La.
Re: kf5705 (# 159)
I do need a sub dr around Lafayette that takes medicaid.
Re: mel (# 177)
