That is why I said people who NEED ( that means that they are in pain
not addicted needs) pain medications need their meds like a diabetic
needs their meds. Addicts need their meds to feed their addiction but
they don't need it to control pain.

Jennie,
You should ignore trolls like this. He obviously has an agenda and is not
going to be able to see anything other than his myopic view of the world.

I do not have any agenda. I am not in law enforcement, health insurance, or
the medical field. I agree that everyone in pain should get their pain meds.
However, you (Rob Shue) have a history of drug abuse that includes
incarceration in a federal prison. Therefore, when you are taking several
medications for shaky leg syndrome, I wonder if you need them all.
Only you know for sure. I hope you are in good health and otherwise fine.
Good luck to you in everything. |

You can, with about 1% the probability of addiction from using the
same amount of the same drug without the pain.

take it from me, I am a former heroin addict , now with over 20 years
of sobriety, addiction begins, when you start to abuse whatever
medication of substance you may be using. in the case of cancer
patients on morphine, who are in a terminal state the point is moot,
since they are sure to die of the disease, the medication is provided
to curb the pain and anxiety. in almost every other case though it
would be addiction. jenius >> Stay informed about: Who is a Drug Addict?? |
