Oxy Ir Florida

I was just wondering if any of you have had issues in central Florida getting your Oxy ir 5, 10, 15, or 30 mg tablets since the new issue with all the pill mills.  As some of you know I had elevated liver enzymes possibly because of the apap in the percocet I was taking.  I was originally taking oxy ir 15mg and it worked great and best of all no apap.   Anyway,  my doc became scared because of all the hoopla with the pill mills in central fl and had me switch to regular percocet with the apap.   I was not happy but said I would try.  Now, the liver test are abnormal and have been put on hydrocodone with ibubrofren.  Now my stomach hurts.  I think this is because of the Ibubrofren.  The label says it cause cause issues with stomach.  Anyway,  I was so so so so so so so happy with the oxy ir.  No issues at all and best of all great pain relief.  I was taken off of it because of the problems in florida.  I am so hoping my doc will listen to me and put me back on the oxy ir.  Even the 5 mg is better than the other meds with the apap and ibubrofen.  Again,  have any chronic pain patients in central florida had any issues with getting their oxy ir because of the pharmacies being scared or detered by the DEA?  I am asking this because I do not want to get my doc to prescribe the oxy ir to me only to find out none of my local pharmacies have it.  Thanks and have a great pain free day!

Hello, I feel so sorry for those in Fla, again everyone gets penilized for the actions of a few.  I say a few because most of the people coming into the pill mills did not even live in Fla.  I heard of a flight out of West VA. that was called the oxy express, as I think I read this plane ran 24-7.

I also read people coming in from Kentucky, Tenn, and other place once word got round.

Although I do not believe for a minute that the state of Fla, only became aware of the pill mills due to the media.  I believe some money had to be exchanged at a high level in Fla politics.  Its not possible they did not know anything about them.  But money was spent in the state of Fla, and I believe that had the media not been nosing around for there documentaries.

Now you the people who depend on these meds to have a good quality of life are punished.  I suggest you fight fire with fire, contact your Representatives, Senate, Congress, and tell your stories.  Let the media, who I feel is the cause of all the negative positions on this problem, but remember, you vote them into office, you can vote them out.  As for the media, they need to see the faces of all of you that are negatively affected by people, who for the most part, do not live in Fla.

Take care, and good luck to you, I will be sending prayers to all who are suffering.
