I am one of hundreds of veterans in Grand Junction being forced off my pain meds. *edit* I will not live in that kind of pain again. I have TOS, RSD, Stenosis (sp), DDD and other things. I simply can not face a life time of pain and becoming more of a burden to my husband. I was still in pain on the meds but I could live with that amount of pain.

My new VA doctor keeps telling me that the pain won't be that bad and the pain meds are what are causing my increased pains. This BS of forcing Vets who don't have cancer off the pain meds is coming from the top of the VAMC system. *edit*.

I hate the people that are doing this,. I feel so betrayed by my government. we need an icon with a screw in the back.
