Villages PL, From my nursing experience, I know 90 days of a narcotic can be addicting to many. There are many chronic pain diseases that require these types of meds to make it through the day. Long term use needs to be closely monitored and now docs prescribing, especially pain management docs, are closely monitored. I guess my point was, in my situation, my doc did not listen to me. In my opinion, he one was a wonderful doc but, as your practice grows, getting the triple booked patients in and out of the office is first and foremost important ($$$$$). If anyone is looking for a doc to prescribe their desired medications, they can always be found.
