THANK YOU!!!
I appreciate that-- I'll see if any of them have any advice... I gotta figure out how to use this site still...
I have also noticed that GoingToMakeIt is very smart about almost everything and his wife is also a Nurse. Just trying to give you some help if possible.
I really am not sure if there is or not. If she could get her foot in the door somewhere and explain the circumstances but it doesn't sound like anyone is willing to listen. I am so sorry for this, not really sure what to do or to say. I hope someone else has a better idea for you soon. I do know that Jacqui805 and 1234betterlife are both nurses and they may be of help to you. You may want to send them a personal message. Both of them are in my friends list. Sorry I wasn't much help. Best of luck to you and your friend.
Thanks for replying...
When she asked the doctors for help she told them she didnt care if it was narcotic or not, she just needed something to releive the pain, and I think they gave her Ibuprofen800.... Whatever it was, it didnt help....
Im a recovering drug addict--I was addicted to narcotics pain meds, coke, etc for a few years....
Its really hard for me to watch my friend in this situation, and I dont want to encourage her to be on narcotics, but I know that with her condition, its really the only thing she can do...
Regardless of everything else, the main problem is that she cant find a doctor that will even see her now, all because of what they put on her medical records. (& I know she wasnt abusing the meds- she took them the way that the doctor said to take them)
Is there any way to get around that?
That is a tough situation. Are there non-narcotic meds that can help?
Maybe if she tells the Dr. that she is willing to try non-narcotics, they may see her again? I am really sorry but hopefully someone will have more info for you soon.
