Pain Management Doctors Who Will Prescribe Medications Around Richmond Or Mechanicsville Or Ashland Va (Page 4)
UpdatedI 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.
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.
This Dr does he see out of state ? And help with chronic pain 24/7 ? Need help got deadly muscke disease and list goes on and on
Please please please provide me with the name of this Dr
HOPE CLINIC---WHAT ARE THEY LOOKING FOR IN YOUR CRIMINAL HISTORY
Go to another disability place....PREMIER is the WORST !!!!!! Please I beg you go to Goss & Fentress....w/premier it was hell, cost me a tone, got turned down, had several case workers, etc. They took 4 yrs. for nothing...I went to goss & fentress in Feb., had a video hearing in May & was awarded my dis. but since premier screwed things up sooo bad I lost 2 yrs. back pay...but I got the other 2 yrs & am now on dis. !!!! Do you realize how much of the leg work your doing for them & yet they get a cut of it? By law lawyers can only charge a certain amt. ( % the highest allowed) or they can go lower but what they're having you do is what they did to me. They aren't from here & know no one. Get a local lawyer, pay the amt ( it's not that much) & get your disability & start living again !!! At the video hearing the Judge said that Preimier almost cost me my life. He reported them & sent a letter to SS about the doc. they sent me to ( who turned me down) & ripped their asses.....Please go to a local atty...
Am in the same position as you...they suspended my doc lic.because he was helping his patients. Now there are a lot of us who are screwed !!! I have a ton of records & you can see the physical impact. Trying to find a doc around here Hpt. Roads area is a nightmare....Thanks to Obama I have lost 2 friends..1 who was w/o her meds & couldn't find a doc & the w/d killed her, another one had lost everything & they treated him like a addict even w/all his documents.They wouldn't give him what he needed & keep lowering his meds. He killed himself. If anyone can help here in the Hpt. Rds area please let us know....thanks everyone
Hi does your dr still prescribe pain medication? Send on almost 20 yrs my dr is retiring!
Could you please give me the name of your doctor. I'm an amputee with hip and back issues. Every since my accident I've seen the same doctor. I went for my regular appointment last Thursday and he was shut down. I can't find a doctor that will prescribe medication. I'm desperate for help. I have kids to take care of and my pain makes it impossible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi can u please gv mmm e dr info I'm currently on pain medicine but my doctor is starting to charge $350 per visit and he won't accept insurance and I can no longer afford it thank you for helping me.
Could I Plz get this doctors info.I'm in need of a pain Dr badly.Thanks Annie
Please provide me with this information i would greatly appreciate it.
Hi,
I have asked about a few locations. I am from Canada and on a 18 month waiting list for a pain Dr. A new hip has lists that are 15 years long in some place. That is the major compliant about Canadian medical system.
Okay. I travel for work all over the USA. From Arizona to NY to Florida and everything in between. I just saw Richmond. I can buy travel Insurance. And get the most expensive $1500 for a week. And then go get all the tests I need as long as its not written as a pre-existing condition. Or I can pay cash. But that sounds hit and miss. I want to really know what happened? ie the real reason for the pain. I can't talk about it as it is a Medical litigation still going on 7 years and trial is in Feb. And the #1 rule with Dr's is never to write anything bad about another Dr. Even if the wrong leg was removed. They will say things, swear at the other Dr. Say I will rip up their License right now. But they will not write this down. Unless they are paid for by my team of Lawyers.
So I would really like to find out how to fix my issue's first. And if they can't which 5 surgeons and 15 Dr's have said. The surgeons say never get any inj's. into that area. And the pain Dr's say I can give you an inj. on top of the meds. But there has been the same crackdown. Similar I guess in Canada. To the point that now we streets are full of fake pills with a different opiate then what the pill is suppose to contain. I don't want to think about how many pharmacies have the wrong meds in them. I have traveled around the world and do not trust any Pharmacy outside of British colonies and for the most part Europe. Just walked into a Pharmacy in China and got fake/sugar pills before and a couple other countries. Mexico is okay at Walmart but that's about it.
So my question is? If you know of a great Dr. who will either treat me very kindly or try to fix me. 1 fix it. 2. give me meds equal to approx 150 mg Morphine or 20 mg of Hydromorphone or 80 mg of Oxycondone. I don't need 200mg Morphine 3x a day with 6 30mg Roxies for breakthru. I will go to a methadone clinic long before then.
So the other part to the question? Is how does it work in the USA? Give my Insurance I bought? Cash? My Medication list from a pharmacy from the past 5 years? I don't mind doing blood or urine. But to pay with cash for that is expensive. And all my meds are in a safe all the time due to a 3 year old. Locked up all the time like a gun.
So I am sure there is someone who knows a very good place to go? And I would be forever thankful. And the other question is? Is it legal to accept gifts ie $100 Visa card for a referral. Because if I could find a good pain clinic or Family Dr. PCP I think that is? Then I would be more then happy to leave a gift cert at your fav spot to eat on my way leaving every 90 days. Because I know you don't have to do. And I promise if anyone gives me the name of a place I will never tell anyone else.
And also can you go to one Dr and get a blood pressure med and then to a different Dr for your pain needs? That is not against any rules right? I know in Canada they will ask you no matter what it is that you got?
Thank you.

Re: Allyson (# 1)
You need to consider talking to your therapist about getting OFF all Clonazepam. Benzodiazepines are what cause your memory loss, falling, and generalized anxiety. They are suspected of causing early dementia. It's possible if you go into a rehab, get off the Klonopin and opioids, you can participate in therapy that can bring about positive changes for you.
