He has literally tried everything....even iv ketmaine years ago at the shepard center here in atlanta. We live halfway between atlanta and macon. I have been doing a lot of research on dr. Chopra in RI and I hoping that is the direction that this dr.in atlanta is trying to go but still my husband ( we only got married less than 2 months ago but have been together over 10 for workers comp purposes) workers comp hates me. We have a pain managment dr. Appt tomorrow and I literallly have 30 pages of qustions concerns and statement for him and he is not leaving till he answers every damn one of them. My husband is in such pain it is unbearable...he was on 240mg oxymorphonr Er for 3 years with nevrr having to up the dose. Now the state board orders this dr. Change and in less than a year he has taken us back 50 steps which I told the new dr the first meeting we were first afraid of. He is catastrophic on WC too btw. Right now this week he will be down to 37.5 mg and it goes down every week. Then on 10/31 (so much for my 5 and 8 year old having a good halloween) he has to fly back to chicago on 7.5 mg....he had a horrible time fling at 105mg nevermind 7.5 a day...it is ridiculous. Right now at this moment he takes xanax for a nxiety, prilosec for stomach and remron and the low low doses of oxymorphone....his dr. Refuses to do anyth.ing else until he gets RIC recommendation on 11/1....oh did I mention of the 5 people I talked to at at RIC they all had the same workerd comp as my hubby seems fishy to.. me....
