Doctors In Flint Who Care About Chronic Pain Management
UpdatedI have been on Methadone for 12 years prescribed for severe arthritis. Now all Doctors at clinic are hell bent on taking every patient off of any narcotic pain reliever. I am addicted to 40 mg of methadone divided up to two doses a day which means 20 milligrams two times a day. I was on two pills am three p.m. but they reduced dose. I developed such severe pain for over 6 weeks that my blood pressure skyrocketed and I developed a flo vent murmur of my heart. Now these doctors are going to take another 10 mg pill away, I fear i will be in a wheelchair or dead. All of the patients are now being taken off methadone and being lectured on how to manage their pain "breathe" is one of the solutions! Are there any physicians in Flint that do not accept or believe that taking away narcotics is not the solution to patient that have severe pain and can medically produce proof of moderate arthritis, and not take away narcotic medications that relieve pain? I have been told this is the new norm that all Doctors are now not treating chronic pain via opiates but only give opiates if break a bone or have cancer? Is this really true? If is what are my options for pain relief? I have never in 12 years ever taken more or less medicine than prescribed so why are we all being taken off necessary pain relief that works?
