Hello fireplaces. i wanted to let you know about the database in my state. Narcotics used to be able to be updated once a week and now they must do them daily. The DEA can come in at anytime and check the RX history. You have to wait till the 30th day now before a refill. The doctors also have access to this and my PM doctor or has someone check this. If the filling drug store sees you have gotten the same thing or something similar they will not fill it for you. If I go to the dentists and get a prescription I have to take it to my PM doctor and if they deem it necessary they will rewrite it. I also have heard thier is a max mg amount you can have filled. In other parts of the state it is a little more lax but here they are very very strict. This has not been caused by the people who need the meds as I feel every one is living longer so there is chronic pain now where in the past people may have already died. I feel the issue is people coming in and getting meds when they have nothing wrong with them. The financial incentive is just so high for diversion and for the doctors writing ridiculous amounts of narcotics.
As others have indicated the best way to approach a doctor is to read him and make a choice of what to say. I have always sad less is more and when you say something to a doctor and they write it down it is like trying to unring a bell.
Sorry for the long reply but I just wanted to share my knowledge about this.
Regards Eddie
