From my brief experience (only been dealing with this for a few months now) I have learned that PM Dr.'s DO NOT deal with narcotics and refuse to be used as a pharmacy for those. They will use other med's such as Cymbalta, Neurontin, Lyrica, topamax and things on that level, but not narcos. They are more into nerve blocks, PT, bio feedback and teaching us how to deal with pain instead of letting us get "high" from pills to avoid it for a minute. My PM is an anestheseologist and Psychologist so she has a lot of ground covered, but trust me, she is no softy. It really can't hurt to go and try one and if it is not for you, then at least you know what it is all about. Some people have to go to 2 or 3 before they find one that works for them.

sorry I do not have any more to offer, but thought I would share what I do have! good luck!
