I Have Been on Oxycontin and Oxycodone for 2 Years Now?

Question by lawnmowerman98: I have been on oxycontin and oxycodone for 2 years now?
Well i have run short a few times and my Dr is mad because of that, I was on 4 10mg endocet, and then she put me on the oxycontin 10 mg every 12 hours (the LOWEST DOSE) and i was kinda having withdrawls and took more to help the pain! and she got mad,,,so she said come to me if your having pain, so i did and she got mad at me once again,,I know its not just her fault but she has now cut me off!!! I am in PAIN and upset, because i feel she doesnt believe me,,,She referred me to the Intensive outpatient treatment program, for maybe detox or Buprenorphine,,,But i dont know if i really need it,,,I am in pain and the oxycontin really helps, (with the right dose) gets me out and walk and clean the house and do things i couldnt before, I have DDD degenerative disk disease and 2 herniated disks, and i get so upset because i feel they dont think i am in that bad of pain,,,It’s sooo frustrating!!! Please any advice will help me,,,Thanks i advance@ Oh by the way i am a 36

Sounds like you need another doctor. Try to also see a chiropractor. I have 2 bad disc and I see a chiropractor at least 3 times a month. It really helps when my meds run l ow. Try using ice and a muscle cream called bio freeze. If you have a tens unit use it. If you don’t have one ask your doctor or chiropractor about getting one.

Good Luck
