Hi.

Please do calm down for a moment and try to tell us why you feel that no doctor will help you. I do not believe it is because of the medications you are taking. Is it because no one has been able to find out what is making you suffer?

Maybe it would be helpful if you first told us why you are on oxycodone (Oxycontin) and pregabalin (Lyrica). Are you in severe pain? What are your symptoms? What have doctors told you about your condition?

Many people here from the forums are eager to help you so please do tell us what is bothering you.

Have you thought maybe a doctor will not take you on because the meds you are on are very addictive?  If anything I would think any doctor would want to take you on to try and get you off some meds and try to treat you with some preventative meds that are not so addictive and harmful.  Maybe if you try to approach a physician with that option, you might have some luck.

That is nuts.  First give your symptoms, diagnosis etc....  Oxycontin is a very powerful pain medicine but were you prescribed this by one of your physicians?  How do you know the doctor won't "take you on".  Did a doctor refuse to treat you?  Do you have health insurance?  Give details so I can respond.
