Heck, I would have been happy to get hooked up with a liberal doc, then made my own arrangements.  The whole "pill hysteria" thing has gotten SOOO far out of hand and it;s crippling (literally!) legit pain patients.

I hear you, it was tough. I finally found a local doc that will prescribe something. Not enough, but better than nothing. I was truly desperate when I signed up for this place. I think that First class care was one of the places listed. They said they had a doctor in my state, but ultimately, even after offering to travel far away, I ended up with nothing. Just a waste of my time, gathering and faxing records. My current doc came from a friends recommendation, I got lucky.

 
I used this service for 12-14 months a few years ago.  It worked well for a while, then slowly fell apart over a period of several months.  Toward the end (just like what 2e said above), I paid a couple months service charge and received nothing in return, no replies to phone calls, emails, NOTHING.  That sumbitch.  It still pisses me off to think about it, although it's been a few years ago.   

I then when with another service for several months (Chronic Care Consultants).  Had to travel out of state several times to meet with their doctor's, but it was bleeding me dry.  Airfare, rental cars, hotels...it was just unmanageable.  I have had NO LUCK finding a good doc in my state.  HYSTERIA is definitely the correct word.  I've had 3 back surgeries, and a spinal chord stimulator implanted to no real effect and my doc's won't prescribe anything that is effective, that actually helps.  Just ridiculous.  It's almost laughable...almost.   

SisterM; I could not agree more about the 'hysteria' comment.  It's so far out of hand that logic left the building along with Elvis.  The closest we can come to fixing it is by participating in this forum, and taking care of ourselves.

Completely OT, but I wish I knew you IRL--between pain issues & stuffed animals, we could have some cool conversations!  I'm sending you a PM of an article you might find interesting--perhaps it might be worth posting?

I've never heard of Chronic care, are they legit?  And yes, the hysteria is ludicrous.  I have a master's in statistics/game theory & could go on for hours about how the "pill hysteria" was created largely out of whole cloth.  A good book to read is Radley Balko's "Rise of the Warrior Cop" (it's on Kindle).  Talks a lot about the drug hysteria period & the pill hysteria as well.  Do some people abuse painkillers?  Of course.  LOTS more abuse alcohol.  

 
Yeah, CCC was (maybe still is) legit.  I was pretty happy with them overall, just couldn't afford to keep it going. 

I've pretty much decided I've got to move from my home-state to have any chance at finding a reasonable doctor.  Funny thing is that it's really not the Dr's fault here (aside from maybe betraying the hippocratic oath), since the state laws here are tougher than the Fed's when it comes to RX's.  People (law-makers in particular it seems) have just lost their f'ing minds on anything remotely related to RX med's.     

Thanks for the tip.  I'm always looking for my next good book...although I'm afraid it may just get me further 'pissed' about the whole situation.

 
Again, we're OT, but the Drug War gets my blood up more than anything--I deal w. its victims every day.  Every day I get up and think, "Why do I do this? I can't fight a system gone mad."

"Reason is not automatic; those who do not possess it cannot be affected by it." Ayn Rand (don't like most of Rand's stuff. but that's a great quote.)

liked the post especially when you see that because doctors can't/are terrified by the DEA (pieces of shit with nothing to do ) to prescribe it becomes relegated to "the streets" to regulate/run the pharmaceutical/narcotic business and there's more dead and scammed and robbed and arrested everyday and more faked pills and yada yada I could keep going but you're right it makes me furious; despite my utter and complete disdain for Rand and anything she represents and said/wrote; a terrible human being in my opinion...the "war on drugs is a big money making system and political platform machine, and we quite know this very obviously"

Blade, in the forum  "All about fighting pain and pain medicines" you'll find an article I posted under the title "Interesting Article."   I think you might enjoy it.  And yes, I have nothing but contempt for Rand as well, but it's a great observation.  

 
Would their be a way to start the pain diagnosis with these drs? So in a year I will reach requirement?

Or is that not a good way to do it?

Hi @georgiagirl, some of these threads you are replying to are quite old, the last post in this one is over a year old! It might be better for you to start a topic of your own or post in more recent and active threads. 

 
Any other options for getting a legit script to get filled one time for norco? Is there an option  for an online consulting physician? I have no previous records that I can bring.

 
If I have records of doctors prescribing benzos for years. And prometh/codeine syrup for the past5 months do you think I will be able to get that as well without the hassle of going to the doctor every month

  12. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  13. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  15. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  16. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  17. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  18. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  20. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
