I was in pain and I went to the ER and got more of the med. I'm trying to find a pain Dr who willing to give me the med.                                           \                loveyouhun ________________________________ To: chronic_pain Sent: Tuesday, January 3, 2012 5:40 PM Subject: I went to my doctor  Wow! taking my husband to see the doctor with me was the best thing that I could of done. at first, the doctor said no no no no no!!! then my husband spoke and then he said, wait I can only hear one at a time. my husband said that only one person was speaking. wow the doctors brain got rattled to the extreme. my husband came to my defense like I needed. then the doctor spoke about the pain doctor and I said I have a waiting time, I am only asking for a temp rx until I see my pain doctor. then he said, I don't think I can even write out methadone, we both laughed so hard it hurt our tummy, then he said ok would give morphine and then he said methdone and morphine are the same thing and I said, oh no they aren't. I told him that methadone takes my pain away to a very low low dose of pain and he just couldn't believe that. so then i said, ok fine if not methadone then what can you give me so I dont withdrawl? he replied back, I am not your pain doctor nor am I treating you for pain. I said, your my primary care doctor and thats all I have. so then he said he will give it, all 3 morphine, methadone and valuim. I said, thank you! then he asked for my rx bottles to see the last pharmacy and what ever else. so we decided to make him wait for them and gave it to him and then he was so stupid and said, no I meant your most recent rx and my husband said, that is it!! it was from November and I said, thats why I told you that I was scared and he was blown away. then after I went to the bathroom 2 times he asked for a urine for drug test LOL!!!! I said, too late cause I empty my bladder out.. so this muther f*** states he aint treating me for pain, but he is and wants to drug test me, hahahaha I don't give a rats ass. I said thank you.. I am so glad that my husband was there to help me.. thank god! he wasn't going to give them to me.. now for my lab results. he said that I need to drink more water for my kidneys and my thyroid is low. and I got approved for my pain doctor, so now I get to make my appt. my husband is going to take my rx's to the pharmacy. Happy New Years Friends!! by the way, does any one know of any pain advocates in Arizona, Bullhead City/Fort Mohave Area? in Az age=32 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 I have seen the same PM doc for over 10 years for what at time was 3 levels of stenosis and disc problems. pain wise I have sciatica very weak left food groin pain use a gain, etc. The doc had me on 30mg of oxicodone up to 4 a day and 300mg of MS CONTIN. A few months ago, he decided to stop writing for oxycodone and switched me to MSIR 30 mg. He also got some things mixed up, thinking that I was seeing him for kidney stones which I do get and he read things in his notes that he claimed I said which I never did. So he cut my MSIR from 120 to 90 monthly. New krishna just came in. From L1L2 to L4 L5 I have 4 levels of bulging discs and spinal stenosis with narrowing of 9,6,8,7 mm respectively. Do i have a legitimate beef with my doctor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Well this Doctor is an Internal Medicine Doctor and kept saying to me, I am not your pain doctor! Well I didn't care considering I had no where else to turn to until I could go see my pain Doctor. so this is a temporary rx. I think the drug test is to see what I am taking and if I am true on what I talk. these drug tests are not all acurate. I've taken one that said I had stuff in me and I never taken it. in az age 32 > Christa wrote: > I'm surprise you pain Dr wanted to do a drug test.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Congratulations, sorry your doctor was a butt hole. No, that's not the word that I wanted to use. <smile> Steve M in PA, age 22 " I know pain. You think you can handle it and one day you can't. And when that happens, you either find reason to go on, or you don't.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 What a WEENIE. Like Steve, also not the word I'd want to use but So now at least this one doctor will get the results of your pee test and see that you're clean and haven't got any street crap in you and hopefully start thinking " Oh gee wiz gosh golly maybe the patient really IS in need. " Could be a start. Will send knee mails out for it. I already send a lot out for our group. Heck, when it hurts too much to move, sending knee mails out is about the only thing useful I can do. Love and hugs and stay warm and hopeful, Jeanne B in GA > M. wrote: > Congratulations, sorry your doctor was a butt hole.
