Hey everyone i know i have a issue with drugs at this point in my life. I have been in programs and to be honest i have built up clean time over the past 18 months. I was doing well, i do like to have a drink here an there and i do abuse some meds i get from my Dr's but it is not a everyday thing. Pretty much my girl has a back issue and her back dr was out of town. She goes to the ER at times and they write her a few pain meds. So a few weeks back she goes for her back and sure enough well i am there all i can think about is should i ask, should i ask? Sure enough i do and i get a few, then that kinda got me back in the world i hate. I went to the ER for some Bs pain i was having, i got no meds i think i am red flagged to be honest. I then had a cyst on my lower back and that led to a few days of pain meds for my self. Then i had to go back for a follow do to another infecton and i got ultram 20 50 mg that i took in one shot. Now i have not had any pain meds and i was a pretty heavy user when i was using to get high. I like most people started out with a injury that left me out of work for 2 years and many surgeries and sure enough 1 pill turned to 2 then 2 to 4 and you know the rest. So i am feeling kinda down, i do not feel like i want more but deep down i kinda do . My girl is still having back issue and sure enough her dr is still out of town. She is going in the morning and to be honest i hope she gets meds. I guess i feel down, tired and very scared. See she is having surgery in 2 weeks and i now a few days of using drugs will not make things better but i guess that 2 to 3 hours i get to get away kinda makes me feel better. I fear she will get them to look at her as if she is there as a pain med seeker, she has a mental health case worker and i told her today i would hate for her to get in trouble over going. It is kinda simple for her, she checks in goes to the back says she is having bad back pain. They go over her meds and they know she has back issues, the Er dr might just write her meds and where out the door in 20-40 min..Or last time they sent her to another section where she seen the PA and she goes ok there is not much we can do and they just write her pain meds. That was about 35 min or so. I hate for her to go and they give her a hard time, she went about a month ago then again like 2 weeks ago. Now i know for sure this will not sit will with the back dr but he writes ultram and gave her this whole i am not going to write them if you go to the Er. I just told her to tell him she was in pain and he was out of town. She did call the office today and they said go to the Er. I kinda feel bad to go threw this, funny thing i have money on me i could very well buy off the street and i would just enough to get my FIX. I have no idea where to go, our weed guy seamed kinda pissed when we asked about pain meds. Well that is what's going on in my life right now and i feel kinda shitty about putting her in that spot, now i do know she wants a few for her self so i tend to think she knows what she is doing.
 
Your girlfriend is going to the emergency department because she has legitimate pain and awaiting an operation. Her pain doctor is not happy because she is going behind his back to get prescriptions. You have been taking her medication and worried because she wants to keep a tablets for herself. And what do you want to know, I mean what are you asking really?

no she does not mind to give to me i was just tell how things are right now and about how i feel bad she is going. I mean she is in pain but its not bad , i know she wants the high just like me. I just feel bad i would hate for her to have them give her a hard time. I know the back dr will be pissed but he is out of town and it has been close to 3 weeks now . I guess i am asking am i wrong for going along with her getting pain meds well i know i will get some? I feel wrong even though i can very well say hey there is no need for you to go.
 
If it's jeopardizing her relationship with the pain doctor, I can see this becoming a problem. They don't appreciate patients going to the hospital and getting extra medication. I can see if it's an urgent situation, where like you said he is legitimately not in the office and ER is needed. But she's done this before and I'm not sure if the hospital staff hasn't caught on yet either. Danger, danger don't let her do this! See if she can hang on until her doctor can see her. This will be on her records there and unless it's absolutely necessary, they will consider her a drug-seeker. It's not worth it.

Your last part is what is on my mind, i been down this road and it sucks. She see's someone for her mental health issues and there connected with the hospital , there upstairs the mental health part. I told hey could they see you went 3 times in a few weeks? i am not sure but her having a back issue that is true might help her but i tend to agree her pain dr will not be happy and sure will question the back to back to back Er visits. Thanks for the help
 
Not sure where you are from, but in NY state every time a doc writes you a script for a CS, they have to check a database to see what else you have been getting and from who. Then they add anything they write to the database and the pharmacist also makes a notation when you pick it up. So in New York, yeah, they can see it all. And I'm sure this is being done in other places too, it just might not be a requirement yet.
 
The big question here is why hasnt your gfs back dr wrote her a big enough script to last her while away? Also where im from drs can ring a script through to a pharmacy so you just have to go picj it up. No need for hospital visits then.lol
