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

  1. T @ tylerderrden: Dunno
  2. S @ soupson: What happened to chem genie?
  3. D @ drdrizzy13: LSU is trash and has always been trash but a night game in death valley is unlike anything I've experienced. Except the first game back to the superdome reopened after Katrina destroyed it. Everybody was crying and drunk as shit lol. All time favorite in person sports moment ever.
  4. M @ meepmoopmeep: Kiffin is a traitor and he and LSU deserve each other since they’re both complete trash
  5. D @ drdrizzy13: yea he's a joke lol. Can't stand him.
  6. L @ Layne_Cobain: You know who rly sucks…lane kiffin 😂 dude is all that’s wrong with college sports or at least a big chunk of it…and he lied about being told he could still coach ole miss in the playoffs
  7. D @ drdrizzy13: Hey at least Ole Miss got in. I can't stand LSU. They really sucked this year.
  8. M @ meepmoopmeep: as an A&M fan I’m content with us missing the SECCG for that reason. Georgia about to fuck Alabama up
  9. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah I agree if bama loses I think they are out. That would be 3 losses. I don't see a 3 loss team getting in this year.
  10. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah that’s why sark was pleading his case about that Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a non conference game against the best team and losing if they hadn’t done that they’d probably be in but oh well way it goes there’s always gonna be a few teams who get robbed or feel they got robbed even with a 12 team playofff…if bama loses to Georgia I’d think they’d be out but who knows
  11. D @ drdrizzy13: Alabama also lost to Florida State pretty bad. Whom Florida beat. I just think if they didn't decide to play ohio state the first game. They would be in with 2 losses instead of Alabama.
  12. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  13. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  14. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  15. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
  16. L @ Layne_Cobain: Is the qb class supposed to be stacked or thin for draft in April I follow college ball but I can’t think right now I think there’s def at least a few high potential qb declaring
  17. D @ drdrizzy13: Right now I believe we pick 2nd. ATM.
  18. D @ drdrizzy13: At first I figured he might be able to do something but our position players suck. We are playing a rookie QB. O-line sucks. It needs to be blown up. I hope we tank for the first pick
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hopefully you guys maybe find a solid qb option in the draft you should end up with a very good pick
  20. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah dude Moore def does not seem like the guy for yall need to clean house
