Staying on Fioricet with codeine

I have been taking this med for over 20 years. I went thru a hospital stay and both that dr and my primary agree this is what works. With the new opiate crackdown, which is really for oxy, who can override these orders to doctors to stop scripts? I am a 63 year old adult. I do not take more tha prescribed and I certainly don’t sell. Who can I make understand that this is what works. Please help
