Guest guest Posted September 2, 2004 Report Share Posted September 2, 2004 Just got off the phone with Dr. 's ofc. They said because of the high volumne they would prefer you call for refills at least 6 weeks in advance. Today alone, they had over 9 phone consultations and refills, some from the UK. Sounds like LDN is really taking off! Calif _________________________________________________________________ On the road to retirement?

I never have a problem getting them within a few days. He is a really good guy and is very supportive of the conference and is planning on being there.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Most narcotic drugs can not be refilled. I am on patches and I still have to go every month to my pain dr to get it filled.. Hugs Babs Re: refills > > Hi all > I live in Las Vegas, and use an opiate, and Norco for breakthrough pain. But-I have to go to the dr. every month to get a refill for my meds. of course for the opiate, but also the Norco. It states on the scrip. itself, that it is not refillable. I don't know anything about Norco, other than to me it's not very potent, but it helps to prevent me from increasing the dose on my opiate I have to take. It must be a law in Nv. that Norco cannot be refilled. So I trot down to the dr. once a month, tell him I still have pain in the same places, he signs the scrip, we chat for about 10 > Take care all > Sincerely > Jeannie Hi Jeannie, I live in Illinois but was struck with your remark about Norco not being very potent. My doctor acts like it is Morphine or something. One 10/325 every 4-6 hours doesn't do anything for me especially without the Backlafen that I also take 10mg 3 times a day. I feel really bad about this and having to admit it but I have to take two Norco to get even a little relief. This is all that they give me for the pain. I have a buldging disc and degeration L2-L3, buldging disc, severe facetjoint hypertrophy, posterior ligament hypertrophy and stenosis in L4-L5, and the same along with a large heriniation at L5-S1. I was told after asking the pain doctor that I had a herniated disc at L5. Now I don't pretend to know what all of the other stuff means but it seems to me that they underplayed my condition some. Norco just isn't cutting it for me either. I do not know what the cause of your pain is, but I have to agree with you about Norco being ineffective.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Have you tried a muscle relaxer with the norco? It helps me.. It don't take all of the pain away.
