Now, you asked if phenergan is a prescription med? Yes, it is. Almost all docs use this, with demerol, morphine shots, as this phenergan helps with the nausea. It also makes the drugs more effective. My husband recently had to take demerol and the phenergan while he was recovering in the hospital. Well, I hope you get to feeling better soon. Also, there is this cola(I forgot the name??) duh! My good friend told me to try pear juice out of the can? I, myself never heard of this. If I do get to feeling a tummy ache coming on, think, I'll try this! Well, take care, hang in there. ~Love Desi aka(Diane) |
Hi Desi,
Well got ahold of my doc and Phenegran was a NO GO! That Butthole! he said I had to get it from my primary care Dr. This pain management just want to do procedures, get your meds right, then let your primary Dr. do your meds after that. My primary Dr. REFUSES to prescribe any narcotics. He tells me he wants to give me a medication to go off of it. He also said he knows ALL about RSD and has helped 4 people. When I said will you help me ? he called 2 Dr`s, one he said wanted to try something but it would hurt like hell, and the other is another pain specialist an hour away! This guy is wack! Now my pain Dr. wants me to ask him to prescribe Phenagran or whatever it is! Right! I looked in the phone book (why not?) and found another pain specialist not too far from me and SHE will stick with you and write prescriptions every month as needed I was told. (maybe she will know something about RSD!) I had to get a referal from my primary Dr. of course! My pain management nurse told me he can`t refuse to do it. I have to wait until October to get in but I will and my current pain Dr. will keep me covered until I get in to see LUCKY DR. NUMBER SEVEN! Until then I think I will tart weaning myself off of this Topamax. I can`t stand the nausea anymore!
Hey Desi! Have a really great day and smile it looks good on you!
