If you call the company that manufactures the medication you need, would they refer you to doctors in your area that have prescribed it for your diagnosis? Do they have that kind of information? Maybe one would be on your insurance plan. It seems your only recourse is to somehow find a doctor who you know would prescribe what works for you, and go to them wherever they are (ideally not too far from where you live).
The whole system needs to be overhauled.
