What would the equivalent to 75 mcg fentanyl patches be in other meds used for treating ongoing chronic pain? My doc switched me from the patch to Percocet after I had problems with the generic brand and could not afford the name brand of this medication. He dropped me to 10/325’s at 4 per day… which not only left me in a lot of pain, but also detoxing when the patch wore off. I had to take 3 or 4 just to get back on keel, and then worry about what to do after that. He told me point blank that he doesn’t know about prescribing pain meds and wants me to see a specialist for my scripts, and then he would take over writing them from there. I’ve already been through pain management at a hospital and they re-referred me to my PCP for ongoing long term meds. I don’t want to start this process over again, but what else is there to do. What should I expect from here?
