phlebomom, I had a friend that got arrested for Dr shopping, She was charged with 8 counts obtaining controlled substance by fraud. she was seeing multiple Dr's, and failing to tell any of them about the others, Therefore she had alot of overlapping narcotic scripts filled.
The DEA contacted her, and heard her side of the story, they told her that they had to present the case in front of grand-jury, and it would be left up to their decision of whether or not they would prosecute.
I warned her not to tell them anything, w/o seeking advice from legal counsel. Anyways she met with them, with tape recorder going, she specifically asked if she was going to jail, they told her they really only wanted to get her side, and to make sure that she was not dealing, and that if the grand-jury did prosecute, she would just have to go to court.

Six months later sherriffs office came into her job, and arrested her (how embarrasing).

Knowing her story, It's hard to believe that they would be able to just arrest you right there on the spot, unless you actually were caught red-handed with a forged script.

My advise to you, is to get a real good attorney, b/c if you told your pmd the truth about getting pain meds from other Dr, and he still decided to give you a script, then you did not break any law.
