IMHO, the pharmaceutical companies make waayyy too much money off us already to want to change anything. There is NO profit in curing a disease, only in staving off the effects.
As things stand now, most pain patients will, out of sheer desperation, try anything to help us feel better. The dr.s aren't allowed to treat us properly, or we'd be given much more medicine for the pain than we do now. We get fed all the hype about addiction, to the point folks are scared to use what they need to manage their daily lives.
People who truly have a pain syndrome do not become addicted to pain meds. You have to actually get high and enjoy the drugs for that to happen. I don't know about the rest of you, but I haven't found any medicine that makes the pain totally disappear and gets me high on top of it all. If you have, please let me know a.s.a.p.... I need some!
