    I have widespread chronic pain I have been take a form of Methadone called Metadol for pain. But I cant not find a family doctor to take over my care . I moved away from the pain clinc which started me on this treatment in 2009. I have tried everything even called a addiction center but that was very degrading. Please help I am worried about under treatment and depression.
