Opiate Tolerance Convincing Doctor

[KidneyStoneMaker]

Hello,

I am new here. I posted an introduction. I am Canadian.

I have a question.

How do I get my doctor or any doctor to prescribe me a stronger pain medication?

I always get prescribed 5mg percocet.

When I probably need like 20mg or stronger.

How is it people get prescribed Oxycontin and other strong pain meds but not me?

I have a chronic kidney stone issue where I get kidney stones like 3 times a year. I have had over 50 stones in 10 years. So with kidney stones and other injuries. I have spent the last 12 years or so being on pain medication probably 3 times a year.

I have built a high tolerance and I have had morphine, dilauted, percocet, vicodin, oxycontin.

Currently,
I have been sick for a month with some kind of weird kidney infection they say test originally was positive but now negative. However I am still having all the symptoms but test negative for infection. I was told though its possible to have the infection still but not test positive. I do have a tiny stone in the kidney which is not causing the pain.

I started out with stomach pain for two weeks. Then ended up with renal colic (kidney pain) on both sides and random vomitting, painful urination for 3 weeks. Now I have diarrhea instead of vomitting. I have also fractured my rib from vomitting so hard for two weeks. The first round of cipro didnt work so now they have me on Amoxy Clad antibiotic. So hopefully I will get better soon.

When I was in the hospital tge other day they gave me like 36mg of morphine over like a 12 hour period.

But yet they only send me home with 5mg of percocet which all the doctors always prescribe me. Its annoying. I have been to 3 hospitals in 2 weeks. I have gone through like 95 pills in like 2 weeks so far. I think this is a bit insane.

I think it would make more sense for them to prescribe me a higher dose or a stronger pain killer. I have been drinking lots of white grape fruit juice to help make the pills stronger.

Any advice would be appreciated thank you.

Welcome to Blue light bud!
But this is a disallowed subject.
Familiarize yourself with the blua, and the forum guidelines, which can be located at the top of the forum's page. It really only takes a few minutes to read.

Also here is a thread that will show you other things you can take besides grapefruit juice to potentiate your meds.

If the tablets they are giving you contain acetaminophen, you have to be careful not to take too many as that can cause liver damage. You may have to go back into the hospital if your pain becomes unmanageable. But we cannot tell you how to go about getting your doctor to give you medications so I have to close this.
