pain meds

[jacque]

i had a question where is everyone getting their pain meds?  doctors in my area totally refuse to write a script.  and if they do they give you very little.  someone i know that is in the health field said the doctors dont write them that much because most of them use them.  i have inherinted migraines i get every month . i have tried imitrax and midrin everything.  and the only thing that works in darvocet and vicodin.  which i very rarely get them so i have to suffer alot with headaches.  now they are trying me on zomig.  but the only thing unfortunetly is the pain meds.  i can see how you can get hooked on them they do make you feel good and want to clean the whole house.  just wanting to know how people get these for up to 10yrs and taking them every day when doctors wont perscribe them

I don't know the answer to your question Mikey...but post it up closer to the top of the board...just tag onto another discussion if the board won't allow you to post...I don't think many people will be looking down here. Mike P.

I passed a phoney script about a year and a half ago. I really did need the perc's but was unable to see my regular doctor for a couple of days. I had broken a couple ribs and was just totaly out of it, going crazy with pain. I
ended up geting a ligitement perscription for the pain from a doctor the same day the police ended up at my door asking questions. To make a longstory short i spent a week in jail, mad a huge mistake and now i am having open nee surgery any day and have been dealing with the pain for about 3-4 month's with some help from percocet,darvocet and ox. My question is will my miss-hap from the forged perscription witch i have been paying for since, show up in my medical records and is it possable that my primary surgen issometimes hasty about geving something for pain due to my past.If so is that legal, is he/she able do that if a pataint is really having pain and is not tring to abuse "pain killers". Thanks for any help with question MIKEY>

Yes my husband & I feel terrible about this situation the Dr. is in...We wish we could make this better for him, if there was anything in the world we could do we WOULD DO IT...I never begged for a script , I didnt have to..Neither did anyone else in his office...I do not blame him, he however does blame himself for many things..Hewas giving me 3 scripts a week for 3 different Narcotics, (Percocet, Lorcet & Oxy).I asked many times to get off only to be told I needed to stay on them for now for the pain..I do have & always will have real pain & physical scars,longer then my forarm..I like this Dr & always will,he will treat my husband & myself (of course no scripts for me-Narcoticts ) & only non narcotics for my spouse..My husband was told by this Dr. to go to his family Dr & explain the suituation & have him give him his pain meds...I hope you do not think I am uncaring, I am not...I am a very loving person & hope I will always be that way..
