Hey Buddy I feel your pain literally. I have exact same back issue, I was doing handfulls of vicodin, it was not doing a thing, so I am not taking them at all now, just crouching on the bed.
Here is some cruel irony. When I did make the incredibly painful 3 hour trip to my doctor's and back with Rx for the 30-weight-oxy, I discovered that no drug store in the city carries it. Here's where we can than Michael Jackson, Rush Limbaugh and others for their addictions going public. In the mean time I have turned my bed into a work station.
I heard that this is something you can get a marijuana card legally if you are in LA

Oxycodone is a very potent narcotic pain medication. Due to the risks of abuse and addiction, many doctors are fearful of prescribing, regardless of how much pain someone is in.
That said, have you tried looking into pain management? I lived in MD for a brief period and I know there are several good places in this speciality. They should be able to help you.
Look up a pain specialist in yellow pages phone book. Ask for 15 mg.x 6-8 tabs per day which would equal 3-4 doses total. Tell dr you take 2 per dose but schedule them 1-2 hrs apart so you wont get too dopey feeling.
Go to a pain doctor, IF you need they will prescribe. If you go in asking for oxy's no legit doc. will give them to you. You need to follow their advice, if nothing else works they will give them to you. To many fakers out there for doc's to be anything but careful.
