No

[Guest guest]

I went to my doctor and was told the same thing. One of my medicines was missing

in my system. I told him no way. He threatened no meds, but I left with what I

needed. I think they just want to see your reaction. I hope it works out for

you. I know most people take all medications on time. Sometime a matter of life

or you know what happens. I get tired of being treated like a junky

FYI provigil sometimes shows up in urine screens as it gives false positives for

methamphetamines

That is why it is very important to call medicine, medicine not drugs. Reactions

as they are, dizzy, not high, or any other sayings that might be misinterpreted.

I do not deal with this type of individual without using medical terms and pain

diaries, functional assessments for every day so they can document my pain.

The doctors are monitored by the DEA and most of them are paranoid and if your

pain management doctor is an anesthesiologist, he will want to do injections

before or along with medication therapy. I will not do it as I have had too many

documented reactions.

Please make sure you know what your contract says as it has a section for

patient rights and there is also a Pain Patient Rights Act for each state and

the doctor needs to be reported if they are not following it.

I try to remain issue orientated and told my doctor when they have told me three

times I did not have the right meds, I had written I had gone to the ER they

gave me a med, I had surgery, they gave me a different med, and when I had the

flu I threw up all my meds.

I make sure that if I take less or different, I call and let the nurse annotate

it in my chart.
