I have been suffering from chronic pancreatis for some time. Where I used to live I went to a pain clinic who worked together with my doctor for pain management. I was given Methadone and Vicodin as rescue medicine. The medication, which I so hard resisted to take, made a big difference in the quality of life that I was having. Two years ago I moved to PR where none of the medications I was taken were available. I was put on percocet, a terrible medicine which cut my quality of life in less than half. As my pancreas showed signs to get worse, I decided to come back to the states hoping to get better treatment. I am here now and have been for a week. I brought all my medical records, bottles, etc. I have spent two days trying to find a doctor or pain clinic that will prescribe my medication. Noone would help me. They all refused, even with my medical records. I am almost out of meds and don’t know what to do. Does anyone know a Doctor in Phoenix or can give me some advise before I loose my job and have to drop off from school where I am shy of only 21 credits to complete my Bachelor? I cannot get out of bed, let alone study or do anything with this pain. Thank you for any suggestions you may have.
