R u already on it?: If you were already on methadone, the time to find a doctor to continue was way before you moved. Your prior doctor should be your major resource in locating a colleague near your current home. At your age, for the most part, long term Methadone prescription for chronic pain is usually not a great plan. You may need to find someone who can taper you off safely.
