Re: Will PM Doc Taper Me Off?

Sounds like you have apretty decent doc. My PM doc would not prescribe me anything but Ultram. When I said I had a terrible reaction to it, he told me to call my PCP. PCP had been scripting me 5/500's. Then one day he just would not refill the script. This after like a year of refills. I called the pharm to see if it had been filled and they said the doctor said no more fills. No call or explanation. I think that is pretty irresponsible. He expected me to go cold turkey. I know it wasn't a high dose, but if you've been taking it for a year staright, you're gonna feel something when you stop. To this day, he's never said a word about it to me at other office visits. My husband said I should bring it up, but I don't want to be labeled a seeker or a lunatic. Of course maybe I should bring it up so that another patient gets treated better. And I really like my PCP. He is a nice guy. Kind of shocked me. But, it's been awhile now, and thank goodness for OP's.
