A good friend of mine is in amazing amounts of pain daily, and her doctor can't get her enough pain meds to last her a month at a time due to regulatory laws that would require her to go to a pain clinic - but she can't really leave the house. It takes her a week to recover from any trips out.
So, she won't have a pain med prescript
ion. Are there any options out there for her? What about
ordering from overseas? Any pharmacies that will send out pain meds without a prescript
ion that are trustworthy? She's too sick to take a lot of chances with adulterated meds.
She's using Kratom and that's just not enough to control her pain much.
Thank you in advance!!!

Lyme has ravaged her body and has left her in super bad shape. Her pain levels get so bad, she literally hits her head against the wall at times just to feel something different than the pain she has daily.
It's actually been quite difficult to "watch" her go through this. Treatment after treatment has failed her at this point - and she's tried most everything out there.

I like very much Amiltriptiline. I do not know if she has tried it. In my country every dr. can prescribe it for pain management or depression (here only psychiatrist can prescribe ).There are Phentanyl patches, I do not know how you can get it. Medical marihuana ?

I doubt if you could get the Opioids online without a script
.

What kind of pain meds she need? Maybe anti inflammatory meds will work? In Europe you can buy lots of such stuff without prescript
ion.

I probably shouldn't mention this. it all depends on where you live.
Seems that wild lettuce has a pain property which is very similar to opium. Has been used for centuries to control pain.
You might check it out.
Good Luck; Claude

I would think it would be hard to impossible to get prescript
ion pain meds online. And if she did find them somewhere, I would question how trustworthy they would be.
I'm so sorry she is going through this. Has she tried marijuana? Even if it's not legal where she lives, it's probably pretty easy to get.

Thank you Blue - I'll suggest the BVT to her!
Yes, she's tried all those things, including the wild lettuce, but none of those things touch her pain levels or she reacts to them (she has bad issues with MCAD too, as well as other things besides these infections).
No, she didn't really catch it that late, although she was already in the chronic phase. These infections have just ravaged her body and left her with all kinds of 'complications' and issues.
Thank you all for doing what you could for suggestions!! That is exactly why I posted! I knew if there was an answer out there, that it wouldn't be easy to find -so I posted here where I know we have knowledgeable people!!!
Thank you!
