Hey, I am Nisha… Joined the forum hoping to make friends and share my knowledge. I strongly believe God has endowed nature with everything we need and most health and skin problems can be handled naturally. I have done years of research and have followed this religiously in my life and advice my friends to do the same. Feel free to hit me up for anytime. Take Care!

In Tampa Fl Genesis Medical and I was told of another Dr. His name is Dr.Chad and idk how to spell the rest but it is under University Pain Management Tampa Fl. I looked on the website and i did see Medicaid. As an acceptable insurance. However its quite possible the Medicaid was added in for addiction treatment. I do not know. Also I have not personally been to tho dr/pm clinic. The clinic I on Bruce B Downs Tampa Fl. They take other insurances. Look up their website and or call for any other inquiries you may have. Genesis Medical clinic I was a patient there. I do know they u/a at the first appointment. And randomly. You must have a current Mri/ cat scan...documenting the reason you need pain medication. Dr. Diaz usually prescribes an Er med to be taken every 12 hours and a max of 4 ...

I have had back problems for years and I am sick of being a slave to opioids. I used to go to a sports medicine doctor that would prescribe 120 norco's a month and at the same time started to go to a pain management doctor so that I would not run out of meds. The pain management doctor prescribed oxycodone 10's qty 120 per month. Believe it or not by 3.5 months I was going thru 120 norco's and 120 oxycodones in 2 weeks. I have had it, the pain is much better than going thru the hoops, the lies and money I did not have. And on top of it I would still detox every month because I did not have enough money to keep myself medicated. I was planning my activities with life and work around the amount of meds I had on hand. I will give you a live example, on friday I had 12 roxi'...

If I am away for a weekend and need to see a dr, AND he writes me a prescription, does the pharmacist see all of my infomation come up on the computer? ## No, not if they aren't in the same pharmacy chain or affiliated with the same pharmacy you use regularly. However, the government does have all of this information. So, for instance if you are getting prescriptions for controlled substances and are doctor shopping elsewhere to get more of them, then it will be discovered by the federal authorities. If they detect such suspicious behavior, then it will be reported to all pharmacies that you have used, as well as any in your immediate area. Are there any other questions? ## Theres only a few states left which are not in the national pharmacy board data base. That is the database of ...

who do they share your personal scrip with. becouse i want to keep my scrip as private as possible and i rather pay cash for it. ## I'm sorry, but this site is not affiliated with any pharmacies or pharmaceutical companies, so I do not have this type of information for you. The only thing I can tell you is that under the new U.S. HIPAA laws, they do have to respect your privacy and abide by all relevant laws. Are there any comments or questions?

Could you share your experience using half litely. Cramps, nauseas etc. Thanks ## if you are taking half lytely, before drinking get a fresh lemon get the juice in your mouth (use a straw to drink it helps) ## For my 3rd ever colonoscopy my doctor prescribed this prep, saying the previous prep used (with which I had had no problems) was no longer manufactured. A) Halflytely cost me over $70 (with insurance); B) The amount of liquid required to be consumed is unreasonable by comparison to other methods; C) The side effects which I experienced (nausea, discomfort, cramping) made it nearly impossible to finish the quantity. If it is this stressful, people will not do the prep properly. Perhaps worse, they will refuse to have another colonoscopy if given no other option. Terrible experience!

I share this experience in the hope of helping others who are suffering similar problems as a result of either Covid vaccines or the virus itself. Not long after my third Covid shot I started getting pins and needles in my fingers and hands. I blamed poor circulation at first but the problem quickly grew to severe pain in my hands and fingers, and trigger finger. The pain got so bad I consulted my GP who referred me to a specialist, who prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs. This then caused heart palpitations (I have a history of cardiac issues) so I stopped the medication immediately and survived on Panadol and, on bad days, Tramal 150. The problem got so bad that I couldn't open the screw top on a bottle of wine, and even the simple task of cleaning my teeth was painful. A second do...

Wanted to share with everyone how happy I am to have finally received the new generic Opana ER 20mg tablets from my pharmacy. I had found Opana to be very effective for my chronic pain and was very sad when they switched it over to the new formula as it wasn't nearly effective as the original octagon shaped tablets and caused stomach aches. These new generic ones seem to me to be as effective as the original formula had been. The tablets I received show to be made by Global Pharmaceuticals and are a small, round, green tablet with G73 imprinted on them. I'm happy to report that these are just like the original formula. Now I no longer have stomach aches from taking those plastic pills that Endo is selling. I sure do hope that these remain as they are, but I have read a couple ar...

Please share information about this drug, what it is used for, etc... ## Based on the spelling, I think you may have meant to say "Januvia" (sitagliptin phosphate). Is that correct? Januvia is an oral prescription medication marketed for managing type-2 diabetes. MedlinePlus.gov states that it works by increasing the amounts of certain natural substances that lower blood sugar when it is high. According to the manufacturer's claims, Januvia can reportedly lower blood sugar more than Metformin alone and is said to be very powerful in that regard. Drug Class: dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors - (antihyperglycemic) Manufacturer: Merck & Co. Dosing: Januvia is said to be taken once a day with or without food. I hope this helps!

I share a sharp warning for those of you who might be considering Cigna Insurance. As a retired health care worker, and now one of the insured, I would like to caution all readers that Cigna, is without doubt, employs unethical tactics to its clients who are already insured. Last year, I enrolled, in what looked to be, one of the best out there; this year, my experience is anything but straight up, provides confusing information from its phone reps, and deceitful in its practices. I have never, in my life, been openly critical of any insurance company. As in all contracts, the bottom line is to read between the cracks.. I am waiting to see just how extensive this crack will be next month. This year, my father passed away in the middle of the enrollment period. Never really thinking that th

Please share info regarding a $60.00 coupon for Vanioa cream. ## I really need Vaniqa Cream. I conferred with my Doctor and he suggested I go to your website. ## I need assistance paying a big co-pay, it looks like your company may offer a $60 coupon which will greatly help. Can this coupon be used more than once or there is anywhere I can obtain a multiuse discount card? ## I would like to know where I can get a vaniqa prescription filled at a discount. ## You may want to compare coupons from GoodRx and even this site's savings card. I was checking to see if the manufacturer (Allergan) offers patient assistance for this drug but I did not see it listed on their site. You may wish to contact them and see if Vaniqa is offered as part of their assistance program.

Wanted to share my experience with coming of this drug with others because I have looked towards others experiences the past few days which have helped me a ton! I started taking Lexpro around the age of 17 never had any real issues besides being tired a lot. I stayed on Lexpro for over 3 years. After complaining about being tired my doctor wanted me to try Pristiq saying it might give me more energy. The switch over between Lexpro and Pristiq was easy I don't recall any struggles. Now I have been taking Pristiq for about 3 years. I have always taken 50mg once a day. If I followed that dosage I was totally fine. But if for whatever reason I missed a day I was shortly reminded by the terrible dizziness an nausea. About a year ago I told the same doctor that put me the medication I wa...

I can only share my experience but I will stick to the facts: If you want off of these life/joy killers. 1)they claim 12hour time released med. NO TRUE OF OXICONTIN 40mg, i could only enjoy my life in 7 hour increments, sometimes 8 rarely but 9 max if you don't mind feeling like crap for a couple hours This is not anything new, Doctors know it pharmacists know it, most of all, your insurance co. Knows it & they don't want to fill it or pay for it. If you are considering use of this med to fight of chronic I pain this med does the job. I took my time & reaserchd prior to, accepting the knowledge of Chem dependency but the pain outwade the decision. Hindsite, you will spend day after day making sure, everyone dots I's & crosses T's, it's rare that a simple Rx

I just want to share my adipex expierence. I took the 37.5 mg strength for 3 months and lost 20 pounds. Not the most, but it's a great start. I also started exercising-Zumba 2x a week, walks, swimming, etc. It isn't easy but if you are dedicated you will see results. I was scared to start the medication & searched forums just like these for people's opinions. The medication made my mouth dry (drink lots of water) and sometimes made me jittery/hyper but other than that I felt fine on the medication. My doctor wants me to come back in 6 months to start again (Ohio) but I think I will just continue to drop weight steadily through diet and exercise. Just with losing 20 pounds I feel so much of a difference. I have more energy & stamina & have seen great toning result...

I would like to share this, for anyone trying to get off Cymbalta; many know it makes it easier for some people to take the capsule apart and take out a bit of the content and reduce it that way. there are 250 tiny balls in there (yes I counted!) which makes it quite tedious, but there's a generic brand called Coperin by Alphapharm, who condensed it to only 6 little pebbles (5mg each) which makes it WAY easier to reduce as you go along. I reduced one pebble every 2 months, but everyone is different. I want to get this out there as this has made a huge difference in my getting off this medication!!
