Hello, Theresa! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're in pain.

However, there is no listing of doctors according to what they will or will not prescribe that I can refer to for you. Technically, any doctor can prescribe it, but there are some regulations that restrict it, now, so many won't do so.

So yes, if you require such a medication, you'll need to see a pain management specialist, due to the new regulations that were put in place last year.

It could also create an issue if you see a new doctor and specifically ask them to prescribe Methadone, doctors are taught to view that as being drug seeking behavior. You really need to see a doctor and then discuss your treatment options, without asking for a specific medication upfront.

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.

Do you currently have a PCP that you see regularly? If so, they may be able to refer you to someone for pain management.

Can anyone suggest a good doctor in that area?
