Any Recommendations For A Pain Specialist In Nyc!

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
New York, NY

I’ve been in pain for a year after neck surgery. Motorcycle accident the result 5 fractures vertebrae’s. I tried everything and honestly oxycodone makes the pain at the very least tolerable. The moment I get up from bed I am in pain, I can’t stand or sit too long because it hurts so damn much. I have a baby on the way. I need to work, but I haven’t found a doctor in nyc willing to help me. Can anyone suggest a doctor that actually cares for their patients.

Good luck! NYC and LI were among the first to stop prescribing opioids. There were a few break ins and deaths related to opioids at pharmacies. We had trouble filling ours while living there for 3 years. Now, with the opioids tax, only a few manufacturers are shipping to NY, thus creating a shortage if you can get a prescription. Don’t want to be a downer, go to your profile and click in the city and find othe NYC people and add them to your team, best way to find a doctor in your area!

Praying you find relief soon!

Blessings
