Our Good doctors, the true pain specialists, are under pressure in this state not to prescribe narcotics for their patients. Because this state is out of control with people taking them when not needed illegially, the state is cracking down on all doctors. There are a lot of side show doctors who practice cash only, and prescribe for people able to pay for their drugs. That is why the Governor is trying to pass this law. Unfortunatly it is trapping people who really do need the medication, and don't abuse it. I am blessed to have a doctor who gives me enough meds. so that my quality of life is better. I still don't like it though, that the state is doing this across the board so to speak. Fla. Has one of the worst reputaions for being the drug mill, it is true however. I have seen those clinics, with lines of people out the door. so Now our Good doctors are under the magnafing glass, and are being told to reduce what they prescribe. There is alot of pressue for them, so they turn away new patients and those on medicare. The system is faulty. Pain patients should not be made to suffer, for the actions of people who abuse. There are lots of articles in the papers about this down here. ginnie
