I am 25 years old and have herniated disks, degenerative disk disease, and nerve pain shooting down my leg. I am literally in constant pain 24/7, and cant sleep due to the unbearable pain, and trouble of finding a comfortable position. When I'm sitting my lower back is hurting, if I'm on my feet my leg is numb. And tingling, and burning sensations.
I have tried every type of treatment in the 4 years this has been going on. I have quite possibly the biggest POS PM doctor in the world. My primary doctor was giving me 7 percs a week , and said due to the opioid epidemic that's all he could do, but until I found a solution he would continue to prescribe them to me.
Well i saw my PM doctor last week and he was literally shocked my primary was prescribing opioids, and wrote a note on my profile that "patient should discontinue using opioids". Now when I renewed my script it was only for 5 so obviously he's trying to taper me off even though it's only 7 a week.I just don't understand, the guy is a pain management doctor and he doesn't give a shit about managing my pain. My mom was with me to and she was begging him to help my pain and he just didnt care. She said she sees me in agonizing pain and she's concerned I'm going to due something drastic and all he says is he needs to keep his mind off it. What fucking joke of a doctor. You know it's bad when your mom is trying to get me pain meds lol.
My PM doctor says oh the pain will get better but you have to keep your mind off of it or stay active. I'm like look mother fucker, I cant stay active cause I cant fucking move without pain meds but he doesnt care, and insists that opioids will just make it worse.
I'm scheduled to due another nerve ablation to try and neutralize the nerve next week, but I'm obviously getting another PM doctor to do the procedure.
I read that CPP can sign a contract where they can get the medication to help them function. Is there any certain criteria that warrants that contract? I have no problem doing random drug tests as I have nothing to hide, I will take my medication responsibly, and not renew it early or anything.
Has anyone gotten this contract or how do you get pain meds so I can function? I cant take this shit anymore, just because my age I get treated like a fucking junkie but I have MRI, xrays, and other test that clearly prove I have significant damage in my back.
I have no quality of life right now and if I don't get some help, I'm just going to end it. Plain and simple. I cant take this shit anymore, please I know their are a lot of people going thru some similar things so I just want to know, how to you cope?
