Brief Answer:
Am sorry but Not possible online!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about your pain and the difficulty you have managing your pain. I understand how demanding this can be especially when we do not have good insurance coverage. Am so sorry to hear about this.
Unfortunately, powerful pain medications are all controlled substances that can never be prescribed by an online physician, Only your treating doctor can do this. I honestly wish I were allowed the option to choose whether to do so or not online but it is clearly impossible.
I will advise that you try over the counter pain medications like a combination of paracetamol and Ibuprofen to increase the analgesic effect. Also try other physical measures like physical therapy, pain patches like salonpass, etc. Theses would offer minor relief as you try to get in contact with your prescribing doctor for more powerful pain medications.
I hope this helps. I wish you well and sorry we cannot prescribe this pain medication online. Feel free to ask for more information or clarification if need be. Thanks.
