New Castle, IN

I was wondering that anyone in the Indianapolis area know of a good pain management doctor? My GP was handling my pain issues but he has moved on to a new place out of state. My new GP will not prescribe pain meds for any reason. I just really want some relief and improved quality of life. Thanks in advance😁

Selling them is one of the reasons why the people that this medicine works for can't get them.

It’s been 3 years since by level one L4-5 spinal fusion. Now i feel the vertebrae’s above hurrying, especially at night. Was wondering, are things about pain meds still hard to get from Dr or PM? That was way back when the opioid crisis first started and now three years later I haven’t heard anything about the opioid now we’re in the coronavirus so I was just wondering if someone could answer my question about getting pain meds once my vertebrae is confirmed that that’s the problem which I’m sure it is because my I have metal plates inside my back so just curious to see if it’s just as hard to get up you it’s now as it was then

400??!!! That's nuts. This is the doctor and patient that causes us all to have these huge challenges getting what we need.

I am in really bad shape and get 180 Vicodin short acting - and 90 long acting a month.

I would be inclined to want to turn that doc in.

Cannot believe she sells them to do her nails and shop. She deserves to be in pain.

Really disgusting.

I so totally agree with you..I see it here all the time and in fact some I know get 400 perks a month say they hurt but yet sell every pill the same day they get their script and go do their nails and go shopping and don't use it at all..Mean while my doctor will only give me Marijuanna so sometimes I find myself reaching out on the street for a bit of relief..but I'm super careful and prefer the natural but Like you just need that BREAK from the deep level pain..I really hope that you find some where or someone that can help you! Hugs!

@A MyChronicPainTeam Member I'm pretty sure it's not legal here. I'm not looking for a miracle... just a break from pain here and there. It's so crazy that we have to fight so hard to get relief due to others addictions!! Hell I can barely can figure out how to get a script for pain meds and addicts can hustle 2 get a large amount of narcotics each month. It just doesn't make any sense to me at all!!!
