That's good to know, thanks. I've only been taking pain meds for a few years, surprisingly.

Well, I hope you have a Pain Management Specialist. If you don't, ask to be referred to one. They should be able to better explain the consequences of taking pain medicine for too long. And evaluate your situation better than any other doctor could.

That goes for everyone who suffers a lot of ongoing pain - get yee to the pain management specialist's office!
