my psychiatrist put me on abilify for "sleep." it worked alright for the first week but after that week iv'e been having the worst pains in my back and especially my knees.
i can barely get in an out of bed and all i do all day is lay around with an ice pack on my knees and my back

The only reason the RLS and worst pains ever started was because of abilify. The doctor prescribed me Cogentin for RLS and the pain. The Cogentin does absolutely nothing for me. no pain relief what so ever
If anything it makes it worse

i have been taking OxyContin to deal with the pain. but its very expensive to take a 40 mg everyday or every other day.

i keep trying to tell my to tell my psychiatrist that nothing she is giving me for pain, RLS, and sleep.

Im not trying to get narcotics fur abuse. i only want them for pain relief but i dont think she'll prescribe me any type of opiate or muscle because of my past

I started out taking my dads prescription (dilaudid, and norco) about two years ago. My parents are divorced so i would go to my dads house every other weekend and usually steal painkiller.

My dad wanted half custody of me so my mom and dad went to court. My mom then told the judge about all the prescriptions i would take from my dad and how i would come home from his house fucked up on opiates sometimes. and also i jacked a whole bottle of norcos and tried to kill myself.

so i my mom got full custody cause of the drugs he had.

but i dont think i can take the pain much longer and dont have the money to buy drugs every other day.

And as of right now all the opiates i get/buy are not for abuse but for my pain.

i basically need to give me script for something i dont care if its not an opiate but as long as my pain is under controll. i dont have any money to go to pain management because i dont have a job yet and i live with my mother. and i dont think shes willing to pay so much money for a months prescriptions.


please post any suggestion on how to get my pain under control or what to say to my doctor so she knows that the cogentin isnt working and i need something long lasting any opiate is fine with. SHIT i dont care even if it was just vicodin as long as it helps my pain. FYI i can barely get in and out of bed cause of the pain.

I am not fat i weigh 138
 
Do you still take Abilify? Because on another thread you said you were still scripted it. Anyway that's not clear.

Sadly I am my doctor had me stop taking a medicine because she thinks the combo of those two are what is causing my pain. But I have to call bullshit
 
The best thing for you to do is tell your dr what you said here and get another opinion... Your dr sounds like an ass!

my mom wouldnt let me another opinion because supposedly she is the "best" where i am.


Bit ill definently ask my mom if we can get a second opinion seeing as how weve been going to this psychciatrist or 2-3 years.

Any idea how i can get some painkillers from her because this stuff she put me on for pain is not helping at all.

sorry if i have broken the rules i am just very socially "challenged" when it comes to talking and espicially asking for something in a very touchy subject.

im just scared im going to have to wait for another 2-3 years when weve tried everything non narcotic.

or wait till i have to go to the emergency room from the pain
