Unfortunately: The current climate of the profession is making it difficult to find doctor's that are willing to treat chronic pain. Even if you find a pain management doctor, he or she may be unwilling to prescribe your medications. Try finding a localgeneral practice or internal medicine doctor. Have your medical records with you. If your condition warrents the meds, you should be ok.

What about a : Referral from your primary care doctor. Explaining why are you on those medications and your diagnosis. I believed that will help you find a good pain management doctor that take your case. If the problem is an orthpedic condition like s/p spinal fusion, a rheumatological condition like severe arthritis, low back pain, a referral will help. Good luck.
