My PM won't prescribe any meds. He does shots only. If someone had listened to me when I had been in the Military and had just gotten back from Iraq then I could have gone into remission and not been hurting so much all these years. But hey I'm just a junky that wants a fix. Atleast that's what they were saying. Now they can't. Also has anyone ever put in for disability for this condition in the USA?
