Looking for a doctor in the portland area.  Been on pain meds for over two years.  Have had unexplained chronic pain for a few years now,  Only thing doctors have come up with is FM.   Which I dont think is true.  Want to live my life with my kids pain free.  on limited income so the right doctor is a must.

 
This isn't a terribly original or creative suggestion, but have you looked into eClinic MD's network? They have a thread in the F2F section, and might have an "understanding" physician in your area.

 
thanks Jewy

going to look into it.  Having a bad spell the last week, everytime i have a spell like this I start looking for a good doctor, then it gets better for a while and I think I can manage.  Ever since star went down, been trying to manage on what I get a month which is about two days worth of pk, if I was to use them around that clock.   Enough to get me by when I have to be active.   The Mexican section is to expensive for me.  This might be the ticket.

 
Has anybody got info on the urgent care clinics and there view on benzos? I have a diagnosis for panic disorder among other things but the clinic I'm being seen at has a no narcotics policy so I can't get any xanax which has been the only effective medication so far.

I've recently been prescribed 2 scripts from an urgent care clinic. Both for Cl0naz3pam. The first prescriber was LPN, who wrote for 30, 2 mg 2x daily. Not much. Suggested I find mental health clinic, which I'm on. When that one ran out (way after it should have at the 2.x2 dose, the second doc was M.D, who felt a lecture on benzos and the efficacy of SSRIs was in order. I wanted to shout, but kept my cool as he wrote for another 30, at 1/2 to 1 mg up to 3x daily. 

My take is this: they'll help in the short run, but in the end they're not gonna sustain your need for ongoing med management, Finallly I went to my PCP who once said I "would never give you kpin" but after a brief, honest discussion she said she'd prescribe until I got into the mental health system, which is literally 2 months out. Good enough because I'm not doing well lately. Been off benzos for a couple of years, but with this diagnosis, as you prob know, life can feel like a roller coaster at times.

X@n@X is also the most effective med in my case, but it's disliked by nearly every prescriber except psychiatrists, afaik. They always want to go with the Kpins. Maybe a more assertive role is needed in my case. IDK. I can't PM, but feel free to hit me back if I missed any pertinent questions.

  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: Big league chew was fire and crazy addictive I remember cause like you said it was so soft so always felt like you weren’t chewing on enough until you had the whole pack in your mouth looking like an ole baseball pitcher with a cheek full of chaw
  5. N @ necromedic: It was, indeed, and very soft. Would almost flow through your hands on a hot day.
  6. Mom&PopShop @ Mom&PopShop: I'm trying to remember what the texture was like.. I know it came in a pouch like chewing tobacco. I remember it being cut up in strips like shredded chewing tobacco too, was that the case???

  10. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Whatever happened to great American boobs. I miss those, too. I wasn’t allowed to fondle them as a kid, my parents were health conscious.
  11. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Bubblegum rack? Like, boobies?
  12. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Don’t message people about things like veterinary care without taking care to mind the rules you two crazy nuts. More at stake than getting bad info or scammed, there’s predators out there looking for bigger fish and will step on a guppy to get to them. Fishing expeditions aren’t just for private citizens enjoying a calm weekend exploring the lake for a fish hookup. Offish of offishial fishing investigations may be looking for the best fishing hole and scare off the big
