I could die, pray for me...:grouphug:

Sending prayers and love dear lady...read your pm's. :hug: :hug:

another dr.
 

No you should not be taken off opiates all at once. That is cruel and I know you feel horrible physically and mentally. I was in columbia mo. for many years. Go to another Dr. Go to columbia university med center. It is a two hour drive from St. Joseph I think. You need another opinion as you are suffering. Dr.s get afraid sometimes of giving medications, especially drs. who practice in small communities. My pain dr. lowered my meds slowly, and I did just fine. I am on very little right now, and the last six months was fine. Hope this whole thing works out better for you.

i wanted a doctor's help
 

dear ginnie -
instead I have been told - nothing nice that I ever want to hear again...'
if I could drive, - I would leave right now to go to columbia,
so much judgements from men and women who have degrees with no hearts

(((lou-lou))))
Hold onto your strength, your integrity and most of all, hold onto YOU! :hug:

My thoughts are with you today.

Lou lou
 

Is it the doctors or the insurance companies who want to take away the drug?

((LouLou)) that's just not right on so many levels! I can't understand why they are not helping you with the withdrawal. I hope you can find help and right away. ♥

Hey Lou Lou
 

Go to another doctor as soon as possible. They tried to do that to me after 10 years of taking Valium,then Librium,then Ativan. I started to really become unglued rapidly. They put me back on Ativan,and changed me to Xanax.

I don't know you,but if you are diagnosed with anxiety disorders, you should be treated with medication. I have OCD,Panic disorder,and another disorder.

I'm on Xanax,Luvox,and seroquel. You may be under-medicated,and the doctors failing to help you. BF:hug::hug::hug:

judgemental people
 

I really do feel you. I know people can be mean, especially when they do not know you. Laughing at your demise isn't nice at all. I take meds too, and would feel the same way if it happened to me. Let me know if you want help in getting to columbia, Where are you in relationship to Blackwater? Would your dr. give you a referal? What was the reason you were taken off the meds to begin with? Ginnie

St Joe
 

I am also in St Joseph, Mo & my dr. did the same thing to me... I was on Ambien for 10 yrs......she told me not to find a psyciatrist , that she would continue to prescribe the Ambien... Now she wont give me a referall !

Guess what.... The very next month, she decides i need trazadone because Ambien was addicting... I am also very angry. :mad:

As soon as i get this SCS implant done I am finding a new dr. These doctors are so egotistical .. They need to think about the patient.

Good luck ... If you need anyone to listen i am here.
