Doe posted... 45 posts of people without brain tumors and opioid history telling TC whether he deserves treatment and justifying his doctor gaslighting him. Very cool!

Back from the ER and I have a four day supply of my morphine so I can get my prescription on Monday. Weirdly enough, no one could figure out why the medicine wasn't prescribed. And I'm not gonna sue her, (I don't want to hurt the hospital)apparently she's only a resident (3rd year) and might not have her DEA license. I'm still thinking about tipping off the medical board, but I don't think I will, unless I don't get my clonazepam(could die without) by tuesday or something. Also, to everyone who's criticizing me, please do what I did and not only get off 100mcg of fentanyl to a low does of morphine, but spend all day calling people to get lied to, and then spending all day in the ER with bad withdrawal and miserable pain. Until your neurosurgeon says you have scaring on the lining of your brain, you really can't judge me. Also, I have adrenal insufficiency, so I CAN die from serious opiate withdrawal. I need an IV or shot of cortisol if I'm ever more sick than an average flu, or throwing up at all. --- I do drawings and stuff https://www.fiverr.com/blueblitz ... Copied to Clipboard!

So I didn't read the responses, so I apologize if I missed anything, but how long have you been on clonazepam? That is truly nasty stuff, and yes if you get dependent on it and stop cold turkey, it can kill you. Benzos... ugh Edit: nevermind. 14 years. Is that medication necessary at this point?

It is dangerous to withdraw from benzodiazepines. You can have seizures. That said, clonazepam has a long half-life relative to the others. But I should make one thing clear - threatening a physician for not prescribing benzodiazepines or opioids will never, ever go well for you - even if you think you're justified. If she's been prescribing benzos forever and cut you off cold turkey without setting you up with another prescriber, that's malpractice. Otherwise, if this is an intermittent thing, you're not going to win this battle, justified or not. --- Razer Blade 15 - Core i7 9750H, RTX 2080 Max-Q, 32 GB DDR4 2666 ... Copied to Clipboard!

She's anew doctor, a resident, and I don't plan on threatening her at all. If she fucks up again with my clonazepam, I will file a complaint with the medical board She can't continue to do this. I'm not sure if CE notices this(because a women is involved (not speaking of you) but forgetting/failing to prescribing someone medication they could literally die without is extreme negligence and blatant malpractice. --- I do drawings and stuff https://www.fiverr.com/blueblitz ...

Just fyi, depending on which field they're in, residents are generally not supposed to prescribe schedule 2 drugs (benzos, opioids, amphetamines, etc) so you might want to see if you can see the attending instead. --- Razer Blade 15 - Core i7 9750H, RTX 2080 Max-Q, 32 GB DDR4 2666 ...

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] I've had the monthly patient complain about me and tell the nurses about how they've never been told X, Y, or Z in contrast to the management plan, or how their prescriptions were never filled, or why am I not scheduled for surgery. And then we go to the medical record and it's all been documented over months of counseling. People will swear up and down that they never used X treatment, and they never got Y imaging, or have never done Z procedure and I'm lying. And it's all documented with reports and pharmacy fills in their chart. Patients are NOT malicious, some of them just horribly mis-remember what was discussed or what they agreed to at the time. So, yeah, sometimes I'm very reluctant to completely side with patients on the initial few encounters at least until I get other records. --- http://i.imgur.com/SGkkbF0.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Let's not go too far here We're probably talking about pituitary adenomas, which are not a life threatening issue for virtually everyone with them. Most people with them won't ever even know unless they get a head CT for something else TC sounds like someone with uncontrolled anxiety and other docs are getting tired of it. People like that are driving us out of medicine. They just want to be sedated into oblivion instead of forced to confront the behavioral changes necessary to get off of these drugs. Benzos are terrible drugs. They should be illegal for anything more than short-term management. Once you're on them, you're hooked for life and you need more and more just to feel normal. --- Pit doc ... Copied to Clipboard!

I agree with everything @NightingaleMD is saying. Thats why OP's doctor is likely trying to send him to psychiatry or pain management, cuz they don't want to deal with him demanding narcotics and benzos and threatening to file complaints to the medical board if he doesn't get it. If I was OP's doctor I would probably fire him. In that case I'd only be obligated to cover him for 1 month while he finds another doctor. Doctors need to start doing this more so their panel is filled with patients whom they can build good relationships with and not malignant relationships. ... Copied to Clipboard!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] One complicating issue is that this patient was a resident who does not have her own DEA number and is acting under her attending. I usually don't deal with chronic pain patients (and didn't in my residency), but during residency I could not write or e-scribe opioids for outpatient post-op pain--it had to be done through an attending's triplicate which they had to personally write. I know benzos are C-IV scheduled drugs which makes them less controlled than opioids, but I can't remember if they needed a triplicate for outpatient management. There's a chance that it's more on the attending than the resident, since the attending may have refused to fill meds with abuse potential for initial visit patients. A lot of people who don't deal with controlled meds avoid prescribing them because of all the litigation around them. I will avoid filling chronic pain meds since that's not my wheelhouse. --- http://i.imgur.com/SGkkbF0.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] It's definitely not appropriate to just assume people who use pain medications are addicts. I don't agree with all of the bashing, and I hate that addicts and prescribing practices from 10 yrs ago spoiled it for people like TC. I'm with you on that. Nobody should be assuming that someone is an addict especially if they know their pain regimen, and pain is a real and debilitating thing. It sucks, but you do have to be cautious and have your own license in mind when it comes to controlled substances. I'm happy this was at least ironed out for the TC at the end of the day. --- http://i.imgur.com/SGkkbF0.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] It's almost never Lyme. And worse, 99% of the time when a patient tells me they have Lyme disease, it was a naturopath or non-physician that diagnosed it using bogus lab studies. So there's a deeper stigma about that which is sad, but kind of unavoidable. As for TC, the sad reality is that people who need controlled substances are treated like criminals even when we aren't. I say we because I take vyvanse, which is a kind of amphetamine, and every time I call to have a refill, it's like I'm calling a f****** probation officer or something. After a while, you internalize the paranoia and it's just ridiculous. People need to back off a little bit. --- Razer Blade 15 - Core i7 9750H, RTX 2080 Max-Q, 32 GB DDR4 2666 ...
