I have problems with my back. i was prescribed oxycodone 30mg 3x/day and methodone 10mg 2x/day...the clinic stopped seeing people for unknown reaso?

Sounds sketchy: Oxycodone and methadone are not recommended, safe treatments for back pain. They are strong narcotics; methadone usually reserved for dealing with addicted individuals. Hope clinic was not closed due to inappropriate dispensing of dangerous drugs! See/find a primary care doctor who can evaluate and provide effective safe treatment for your back pain. Good wishes:)

CHRONIC PAIN: CHRONIC NEUROPATHIC PAIN IS VERY DIFFICULT TO TREAT AND REQUIRES A TEAM APPROACH. 1. A LONG ACTING PAIN MEDICATION LIKE DURAGESIC PATCH 2. SHORT ACTING FOR BREAK THROUGH PAIN LIKE OXYCODONE. 3. A NEROLEPTIC LIKE NEURONTIN (gabapentin). YOU NEED A REPUTABLE PAIN CLINIC THAT HAS BEEN AROUND. USUALLY STAFFED WITH PMR/ANESTHESIA/NEURO/IM PREFERABLY AFFILIATED WITH A UNIVERSITY CORNEL/COLUMBIA/SINAI

Pain management: I recommend seeing a Pain Management specialist. They have many methods to treat pain besides narcotics, including injections, physical therapy, TENS units, etc. As you may know, tele-medicine doctors are not allowed to prescribe narcotics, so you will have to be seen in person either way. Good luck.

Is there a question?: If the only thing done for your back pain was to throw opioids at it, I am not surprised that this "clinic" suddenly closed - it may have been a visit by a variety of police authorities, including the DEA or DA's office. If you were left without prescriptions, I would strongly suggest using the remaining meds to taper yourself off. Finding another doc to continue narcotics is difficult. Good luck.

I'm glad they closed.: Heavy doses of narcotics are not the right treatment plan for anyone with significant back pain. Multi-specialty treatment plans coordinated by a reputable international pain physician is. It involves mood support, physical therapy, possibly injections , medication management and potentially a referral to a surgical specialist.
