Pain Management Doctors Who Will Prescribe Medications Around Richmond Or Mechanicsville Or Ashland Va (Page 3) (Top voted first)

Updated

I have Sciatica, Spondeliosis, Degenerative Disc Disease and Fibromyalgia in both my hips & legs, I have had 3 sets of nerve blocker injections that did not help. I had a herniated disc, in my lower back, (scar tissue has entrapped nerve in it), intractable back pain, I have been falling a lot at home or if I am out somewhere. I get very confused and short term memory is really getting bad which is a symptom of Fibromyalgia, I don't want to go anywhere, I rarely see my friends. I feel like my feet and legs are running and my body is not catching up. I have also last year had left shoulder surgery for small tear in rotator cuff, bone spurs leaning on rotator cuff, osteoarthritis and fluid around the arthritis, 1 month after this surgery: I have what feels like electricity shocks from my upper arm all the way down to my fingers. My left arm is literally useless. It is extremely hard for me to walk sometimes or even sit for any length of time. I am very depressed and cry a lot. I have applied for Social security Disability, denied twice and had a hearing which is under appeal at this time. I am taking Cymbalta 120 mg a day, Clonazepam 1 mg 3 x a day, Gabapentin 300 mg 1 per day, Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen 10/325 one tablet six times per day and amitriptyline 150mg at bedtime.

Debbie the reason I've mentioned them is several family members complained about the higher dosing. Call and ask. Now with the new rules doctors do NOT if they are legitimate take cash pay they require insurance.

Debbie I have the genetic DNA testing that shows I am an ultra rapid opioid metabolizer. The famous physician I have gone to for 5 years tested all in his practice and unfortunately IT DOES US NO GOOD at this present time politically.

The FDA has never made a statement of limitation on opioid therapy and now that this is being taken seriously (like law) physicians who attempt to provide this for patients will be under fire.

For example in the late 90's any physician investigated by the DEA paid approximately $1,000,000 when their office was entered, the DEA agents identified and showed "cause" and examined records and even (not an arrest but actual charge) for example "over prescribing, poor documentation" and so forth. This amount of money was charged (to my knowledge) was allowed due to high costs of investigation for example is kept by that federal agency. In short, the physician whether proven guilty or not must hire an expensive attorney, perhaps go to jail briefly and post bail the patients are not allowed to see their physician for any period of time etc.

So even people like me with a DNA profile are highly affected. If you have medication and any doctor treating you let them help you titrate down to a more acceptable level until you get help. I am not properly treated at this time and need a physician immediately (long story) but to obtain excellent treatment for what I require and the fact that I've progressed to Central Pain Syndrome which is basically "death at any time due to brain involvement" (irreversible) disallows my dosage which finally stabilized me for 3 years. The rule the FDA has set does not mean a physician cannot go outside, but no physician currently WILL they are hanging us out to dry and we survive or we die..

Debbie I am if you have not jumped around to the other areas to read my messages a professional nurse with a catastrophic injury (90's) and within 2 months of the injury was started on LA medication. Therefore I have needed in order I do not return to organ failure and die need treatment immediately. Due to my P450 there are only specific medications and no pills that work. Anyone on LA in particular for over 5 years is physically tolerant.

Debbie, no I have referred since my work injury in the 90's over 10,000 suicidal pain patients throughout the world (am a nurse and researcher). I noted originally there were 2 physicians--one has since retired. There were complaints of writing too much medications by a few family members have heard the remaining physician may retire in the next few years.

Hi Helene,

I moved to Newport News from Arizona a few months ago and have been flying cross country to see my spine/pain Dr in AZ! He is great, trusts me and generally cares about helping. He does contracts and drug panels on everyone of course. I'm terrified to try and find a doc out here, so fearful of being treated like a junkie or accused of lying or being regarded as trash that I can't bring myself to even try. But plane tickets are killing me....My only income is SS Disability and so I have to find a NICE doctor. I'm okay with trying a new combo of mess....just as long as I'm treated like a human being and provided they work (I have three kids to take care of and my husband left for a 'not sick' woman who looks just like me). If you could share the name of the nice family practice doc you mentioned... Or if anyone else has recommendations I would greatly appreciate your sharing. I'm willing to drive a few hours for the right doc. Thanks.
