[ammowoman]

He didn't order anything. Just said that the oxy required a script every month. Came back with 12 of them dated for each month and let him know if he lost them he would be out of luck. I'm not positive, but I believe now he is on 20mg oxy twice a day and 8 hydrocodone a day. He did explain that the the longer your on something the better the liver gets at removing it and thats why its not as effective. He offered a "class" to help him deal with pain levels. I asked about the aqua therapy and he agreed to a few classes to see if it helped him. He said he would check to see if the IC would approve it. I said that if he wrote a script for it, that I think they have to approve it and not to ask them anything. His case manager was not at the appt. We go to mediation in 2 days and my husband wanted to wait till after it before he did anything. We don't expect anything to settle or even get close to it. We understand that it's a required step before trial can be scheduled. I will be making a appt with his primary dr for a physical so that blood work can be done. If he thinks that he should be having it done more than we will just have him do it. It doesn't seem like his pain mgmt dr is going to ever do it.
