So, : So, let me understand you... You were prescribed a walking boot after a broken leg, but didn't use it, and instead began "heavy labor, " and relied on narcotics to essentially mask the pain. And, if i read your question correctly, you were also in a cast which you implied was removed prematurely. You're also active in sports and have a job that is physically demanding, and rather than look to try to find solutions to your problems, would rather live on narcotics and not even attempt to find relief. If i'm reading your question correctly, it sounds like you're going to have a very difficult time finding anyone who would be willing to keep prescribing narcotics for you. Narcotic pain medication certainly plays an important role in helping people in pain while they heal. In some instances, where the pain is terminal or nothing has been able to reduce your pain to a tolerable level, narcotics might then have a purpose. But it sounds like you're not even interested in finding a solution, and would just prefer to live the rest of your life working hard and playing sports, but relying on narcotics to see you through it all. I'm sorry to sound judgmental, but if you're not even willing to try to get better, and deliberately, outright refuse to wear a cast or boot, you can't expect to not suffer the consequences of your own actions. Thus, you will find it exceedingly difficult to find a doctor willing to write you prescriptions for narcotics with no effort on your part to make an attempt to fix the problem that is causing the pain in the first place.

Evaluation, not drug: You need to see a good orthopedist for evaluation as to the non-union and how to treat it. I am always concerned when someone asks for a specific drug, rather than just wanting to have their pain relieved. Any physician with a dea certificate can prescribe any class ii opioid, of which Oxymorphone is one of many. What you need, however, is not a specific drug but help for your non-union/pain.
