I suffer from severe chronic pain and have been prescribed hydrocodone since I was 22, I am now 52. Less than a year ago my doctor of twelve years sent me a letter telling me he would no longer prescribe narcotics and was also declining from being my PCP. I was shocked and hurt. Confused. I called and asked why and was never given a reason, even when I went to administration and risk management. I am now in foreclosure of my ranch as I can not function and perform my chores involved for me to make my living. Any speculations you may have would be appreciated.
Hello, In many countries narcotics are legally regulated and that may be the reason for with holding the pain medication in your case. However, you can try analgesics like Gabapentin for symptomatic relief. You can consult a pain physician, he can legally prescribe narcotics for you. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
