Chronic pain management is a disaster.

I weaned off fentanyl and oxy. I got sick of the run around every month to get the meds. They give it out and they taketh away....I got sick of encountering a hassle when I needed a refill and my own doc was not there and I had to deal with a different doc.

No doctors want to prescribe pain pills or controlled substances.

As for not needing their pain meds....well.....uh, I can't agree with it. I am in a lot of pain. I limp by on vicodin. But it beats dealing with the system.

Until a doctor is really sick, or in pain, they do NOT understand the experience of living daily in this kind of pain.

It takes tremendous courage to get out of bed.

You may be better of smoking the weed....at least you have your dignity!

(This thing about MJ being illegal for medical use is sooo stupid.)
