Did you write you were taking these drugs on your application while you were

waiting to see this doc?

Or tell her? Maybe she thought you were " doctor shopping " ?

Still, no excuse. Doctors are there to HELP us!

Don't be upset.

There are a few uncompassionate doctors out there!

You WILL find a good one.

It's a hard question.

I think you did the right thing.

A drug addict would have hid it.

But a doctor should give you the meds you need.

Was this a young doctor?

We have found older doctors are wiser and less paranoid.

The fact he told you he doesn't prescribe these meds makes me think you were

doctor shopping.

He MUST prescribe pain meds to some!!!

Why did you leave the former doctor?

Actually I did write everything I was taking on the application because I

thought being honest was the right thing to do. BUT I hadn't looked at it the

way you mentioned. Do you think maybe in this case I shouldn't have?

She was relatively young and when she came into see me, she had not started

looking at the form I had filled out - She introduced herself and immediately

did a speach on what she does & doesn't prescribe. I immediately knew that it

wasn't ME - that apparantly she had had a problem with people asking for things.

She had specifically mentioned " Oxycontin as well as any other type of narcotic

or controlled substance " . So, again, I knew it was NOT me but still. My last RA

doctor had felt that it was time for me to go to a larger facility so that I

could get the best possible treatment as I had gone thru numerious medications

and was unable to tolerate most.

I know thats extremely frustrating when a doctor does

not seem to care or will not help! In the beginning, I

just had FMS and MPS. For the longest time, I was

only given the antidepressants that were used for FMS

and thought to help relieve pain. I was given

extremely low doses of tramadol. Finally, when I

could barely move, another doctor gave me Darvocett

and eventually I also had something similar to

oxycontin. I had to sign an agreement with my doctor

at the time, that I would enter into treatment if any

addiction occured. Some of my doctors in the

beginning said that with chronic pain, they don't all

like to use pain medications/narcotics. It gets to

the point though when we cannot function and our

quality of life is more impaired than it already is

that someone finally seems to wake up and say " oh you

do need this " ! Good luck! Hang in there:)

You know it's funny, I never ASKED for a narcotic, it just so happened it was

one of the few drugs my rheumy had me try that I was able to tolerate. This new

doctor didn't even recommend another TYPE of drug for me to try that I haven't

tried before. She didn't even ask what all I had tried previously. There are new

drugs coming out all of the time and I am willing to be a guinnea pig but I

don't know what they are, that's the doctors job.

Yes, I HAVE to hang in there!!! But you guys have really helped!!! Thanks!
