I had a Medtronic pain pump put in eight months ago and at first I thought it was so great but the past few months I've been having more pain and I have no extra meds to take as needed. When I was taking oxy orally I could take a couple at once and get over the severe pain. Then I would just skip my next dose.Now I feel there's nothing I can do.
Hi moved up to New York and now I'm having trouble finding somewhere to refill my meds. It's terrible.

Hello @junemac7 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I am sorry you are going through this with your pump. I wonder if your doctor who performed your surgery would be able to help refer you to someone closer to where you are living now? Have you tried asking them?
