You're condoning addictive medication because you've been offered no alternative. You didn't get the meds you wanted but you survived. I'd a tooth pulled from my jaw because they couldn't pull it from my mouth. I got opioids for pain. I had symptoms of a junkie afterwards. I wanted more. It's wrong. These doctors know what they are fucking doing.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77518519 I don't see pot as a bad alternative as it is not as addictive as Opiates. But again the only time I ever took morphine was for a back injury and yes it was needed as I could not get out of bed or walk for 2 weeks Quoting: Jake I think the point of this is not to prescribe it for every complaint. There are situations where it is needed but not at the level it is being prescribed now. It's being abused. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77518519 I agree, I will clarify it with my wife tonight. What I got from the published story on Fox News is that they were only targeting specifically Pill mills I read one story were a city had over 1 million prescriptions for Morphine in one year and the city had only 100,000 residents Quoting: Jake That's insane, and does sound like a pill mill. My dad couldn't take Oxy in his final stages of cancer, so they finally gave him morphine at VA, a friend of mine in health industry was was surprised they even gave it to my dad, he said they don't usually like to prescribe it. I'm sure they don't want to prescribe morphine as there are no patents on it, so big pharma not pocketing dough on that one. My friend in the health industry said actually morphine is safer than Oxy, as Oxy synthetic, so go figure.
