Ecuador: Best Pain medication available?:
I have a Home Purchase Contract (in San Jacinto) sitting in front of me for signature. As I was about to sign, something told me to see if I can get my prescription medications filled in Ecuador (near Crucita or going to a larger city such as Manta, Bahia, or Quito if needed).
I am on Social Security Disability (which alone should prove my need for narcotic pain meds). I take Morphine Sulfate ER (brand: MS Contin). The "ER" stands for extended release.
After reading these posts, I'm in a panic. Has anything changed in the last year that would allow me to receive this med along with others listed below?
Duloxetine (Cymbalta is brand);
Diazepam (Valium is brand);
Gabepentin (Neurontin is brand);
Amrix (muscle relaxant, non narcotic-don't know brand name);
Morphine Sulfate ER (MS Contin) as mentioned above.
I imagine the poster that is a psych professional can kindly answer to the psych meds?
The Amrix is not a deal breaker--but all others above are, I've been taking all of them for 10+ years and am someone who truly needs them.
I believe doc, and another poster, mentioned they have their meds shipped over. How could I do this, most especially the narcotics (Morphine & Valium) as here in Florida, refills on Morphine Sulfate ER are not allowed. So every month, I visit my pain management doctor and obtain a new script. (I am guessing there are no pain management physicians in Ecuador.) The Valium (Diazepam) script I receive has refills for 6 months, upon which time I have worked out to video with my psych professional for refills on the psych meds, but it sounds that a USA script won't suffice.
HELP please?
I'm open to any and all suggestions, even if they require a visit to Quito or Guayaquil, etc.
I am putting the Purchase Contract and container on hold for our family until I can get answers. The Seller won't wait for more than a couple days.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can be of help in my quest!
