While I wait for Coinbase to verify my account I thought I’d see if anyone here has thoughts regarding my f2f issue with pain clinic.  First off I’ve had chronic pain due to recurring pain after cervical fusion nearly 20 years ago and had been prescribed strong pain meds including fentanyl patch and oral oxy 15 mg 6x a day.  In Spring of 2018 new doc I saw in Oregon cut me off patches (cold turkey) and decreased Oxy’s to 4 a day.  After so many years on such high doses of opioids looking back I’m glad she did that because I agree I was on much more than necessary.  In September of 2018 I moved to another state and into a new pain clinic and after a number of months was asked by PA to go in for 6 weeks Physical Therapy so Medicare would pay for a new MRI.  Due to me being the only person able to work and having just started a new job I wasn’t able to do PT at that time as my schedule was on day to day basis so no idea what my hours would be.  Pain Doc stated  until I was able to complete PT and get MRI he could no longer prescribe pain meds. Fair enough and at that time June 2019 I was only taking meds extremely sparingly so had quite a few squirreled away.  Fast forward to September and I was having extreme pain flare ups to the point of being in near constant pain.  I went in and saw my GP (didn’t ask for pain meds) but felt it was time to try PT and get MRI.  After completing PT and getting new MRI was now diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease and referred back to Pain Clinic and to see Neurosurgeon.  Called to get into Pain doc but was over month before he could get me in, 2 months for Neuro (argh)!  So at that point I’m in serious pain and ask GP for something until I see pain doc.  She prescribes 30 days of Tramadol to get me by (better than ibuprofen I guess).  So I see Pain Doc who now then says I violated contract because I got Tramadol from GP (oh my goodness) I say there was nothing else I could due but suffer a whole extra month (what the frick).  He also says they will get me in for an injection but must get prior authorization then will discuss pain meds. I wait a month and hear nothing, call leaving messages twice, no call back.  Then my insurance is cancelled since I make too much money fair enough but Pain Clinic NEVER tried to get authorization!!!  By now it’s January and I’m still miserable, have no insurance, call Pain Clinic to get in and talk to PA and ask what can I do now.  Guess what he won’t even see me until I have injection and had them cancel my appointment!  I ask why and she says cuz I got Tramadol from GP.  I was livid and asked why someone didn’t call me back about injections or try and get authorization, she says I’m sorry I don’t know what happened....

After going through all this I’m disgusted with them and don’t know what to do.  I’ve always prided myself on being told what a great patient I am never asking for early fills and always letting other Doctor know exactly what meds I’m on..  Now I’m even afraid to see my GP......

 
I'm so sorry you are going through all this. It sounds typical of today's environment. That's part of the reason so many are here. I don't have any recommendations for you but wish you the best of luck. 

 
@TmD1968 I'm just reading your post & curious what ever happened with your situation?  What a sad story & such a shitty thing their doing to you.  One thing I have learned over time is to keep moving forward & you will find a Dr. with empathy & compassion who will be able to pull his/her head out of her ass & give you the help you deserve!

  1. P @ Poppycock: @Mammasboi123 thank you, I’m still getting the hang of using this platform. Sometimes when I try to search something it will come back with nothing or tell me what I typed in wasn’t long enough or something
  2. M @ Mammasboi123: Also, keep in mind that if a thread topic doesn’t already exist for a particular mag after searching for it, for a particular msg you’ve got questions on, you can always open a new thread under the appropriate section to get member feedback. I only mention doing it this other way due to there being a rule against members/vendors advertising or soliciting mags via the Shout Box. So I wouldn’t be surprised if it gets removed at some point.
  3. M @ Mammasboi123: @Poppycock, I would encourage you or any other member looking for current options for various mags to first check if an existing thread has already been created on the topic by using the Search bar found on the upper right corner of the site. For example, here’s a recent thread that was posted just a couple months ago that shows up when I type in ‘5APB’ to the search bar: https://drugbuyersguide.info/threads/4-fma-and-6-apb.11276/#post-268359.
