I live very close to Nashville and go to a pain clinic there. I'm also an RN who works in a clinic. We don't dispense the medicines here; however, patients get scripts. Sometimes he only prescribes one day at a time until the patient shows they can properly handle more medication. And we have callbacks for the patients who do get more than just one day's worth.

Anyhow I know it's been a year or so since u typed this so if u need help still or need an understanding non-judgemental friend, please let me know. Anyone in this chat can write me back. I just want to help, or be a friend if that's what you are looking for. Chronic pain warriors need to stick together. As well as addicts. I'm not just a nurse who takes methadone, but a supporter. I'll help anyone who asks. Hope to hear from you. Take care.

No, chronic pain patients can’t go to a methadone clinic. If they do they’ll never get paint treatment again because it will look like they’re a drug addict. I don’t know if it’s all states, but the state I live in doctors are not allowed to prescribe addictive medication to drug addicts. It’s illegal.

Oh I thought you were recommending Lyrica and I was coming to the comments to say my god don’t do that the withdrawals are worse than opiate withdrawals, but then I see you covered that in your comment. Gabapentin, withdrawals worse than opiate withdrawals, they take like a month it’s terrible. Plus this medication’s never helped my pain they just made me feel drunk. I don’t want to feel drunk

Most doctors don’t like to take over people who are already on these meds without getting records because they assume that y’all did something wrong and got kicked out of your clinic. But in the situation they can see in the prescription drug monitoring system who gave you the medication they can probably easily see that that place is closed down. I ran into the same problem when my psychiatrist office got Covid and they weren’t answering the phone, I couldn’t get my PCP to refill my medication even though he’s known me for years he knows I’m on it, it’s in my medical records, he wouldn’t do it unless I could get my records from them and I couldn’t get my records from them because they were closed because someone died of Covid. It’s absolute BS and they wonder why people resort to street drugs.

Re: renee (# 7)

Hi I just seen your post about 2 Dr's that could help this lady with her pain. I know it's been a lot of years since your post. I also lost my Dr 2021 (appr.) Who gave me a script for Benzos. I found another Dr but he transfered back to Fla. It's been hard I have been taking them for over 6 years. Can you recommend anyone in Rome Ga Area

Omg I'm so very sorry Google Methodone clinics in your area. Tell them you are withdrawing off of Methodone because they shut down. They will do walk ins that day. I can't believe this . This is horrible. I would get a lawyer as well.
