Pain Medication Methadone Near Trenton Nj
(Newest replies first)

Hello Everyone. I moved to Trenton, NJ from San Francisco. My doctor there helped me with Methadone and morphine. I am looking for a doctor in New Jersey, or close by, maybe new york or phily who prescribes methadone for pain. I have taken methadone in SF for over a year, and I have bottles and I am sure my doctor there can send my new doctor my medical records, but I am not sure whom to contact. Most doctors here say they do not prescribe medication for pain. I am probably calling the wrong doctors. However, in many parts of the country it is much easier to get methadone than morphine or oxycontin for pain, and I think this is helpful to me because methadone is not addictive for me. can anyone help me with the name of a doctor? I would be so grateful. I am so worried about this that I am even considering returning to San Francisco, if I cannot find any help in this area :(

Hello, I am trying to find a doctor in San Francisco that will prescribe either morphine or Oxy or methadone. Unfortunately, even though I was born in New Jersey, I do not have any Dr contacts there. But I will ask my family who still lives in Blackwood. I am a survivor of a car accident where I was ejected-I have has chronic pain and stenosis for years-my doctor no longer practices and I need to find a new one ASAP. Everyone I go to is reluctant to prescribe-even with my MRI's history or pain mgmt, and obvious need to walk with a cane/back brace. Can you give me the name of the San Francisco Dr. That gave you the morphing and methadone? You'd be helping someone who is debilitated by pain this Christmas! I could never thank you enough.....

Hello, Angie! How are you?

The problem is really due to the fact that you are calling new doctors and asking if they prescribe controlled substances. Doctors are taught to view that as being drug seeking behavior and will tell you that they don't prescribe medications for pain.

The only way to really find out if they will help you is by setting up an appointment with a new doctor, make sure they get a full copy of your recent medical records and then keep the appointment to discuss your options.

Is there anything else I can help with?
