Question: hi there!
i had a accident 4 months ago working a my bosses house im a glazier buy trade. carying glass i slipped and landed in a awkward position the glass was best part of 70kg i just lost my footing with the stairs we had and i went down on one knee i didnt want to drop the glass but imidium pain straigh up my back an back down my legs little pins and needles also i had scans done and i have a buldge and small tear in L5si and also have issues with my fasset joints amd L4 also i had have some great doctors ive seen and specialists and my gp i have been working with and they understad my pain levels ive done all they have asked from he unfotuntley he is moving back to dubi with his family so im new to this online system but i need someone which i can listen to me and not treat me as a nother number threw the door this is very important for me to get this sorted with my work commitments i also have a physio im seing twice a week and it helps alot its been day and night difference but he does not think i am even close to being fit to go back to work anytime soon im elergic to tramadol and panadine fort nut besides that im a healthy guy ex personal trainer and athlete so far i have been have been using endone(percocet) and alo oxycottin as my main medication but since they changed the formular ive struggled with stomach cramps and pains so i stoped that which was a shame because i felt little to no pain on the original formular. so the doc advised me to switch to oxy norm which is a fast acting oxycodone in a capsual but they only go to 20 mg in tottal strength so thats been hard need as we have had to use 10mg and 5mg to get me up to a cimfortable dose..i really am looking for someone who can understand me and my needs i have a young family i cannot play with my son and its getting hard on me im really not looking to be treated as a bother number i would like to build a great long term relatioship..

Brief Answer:
We do not prescribe

Detailed Answer:
That being said if I knew your city and state... maybe insurance cove range I can get a long long list of possibilities.

Just got out of my board review lecture on pain vs addiction....no extra credit for guessing which YOU have
(but seriously..having a known problem that is exactly consistent with where the pain is...being on 50 to 60 mg per day or less being realistic and not demanding not doing anything illegal,etc)....so....
first some other non narcotic things:
Bicycling
Physiotherapy..especially while in the shower..but be careful about falls
Ballroom dance for body awareness

In theory dealing with depression issues but I am not getting that as an issue here.

In summary this is NOT a real doctor context although personally and most of us are MORE qualified than the average...
but we CAN likely locate some good possibilities if we know your location!
Note: For further queries, consult a joint and bone specialist, an Orthopaedic surgeon. Book a Call now.
