RE: Chronic Pain Fuels Boom in Opioids(Cat)

[Guest guest]

Cat? You know LA and I'm from NYC recently relocated to Florida so don't know

your town.

Yes, the laws are stricter and a *lot* is due to propaganda, I agree.

It's very frustrating.

If you possibly can, how about finding a pain mgt spec in the network, who

isn't too far away.

Or can you possibly take something like BART to a doctor?

In many cities there's transportation for disabled and handicapped people; in

NYC it's a good one, while here it is only for medical appointments & during

certain hours, but something is better than nothing. :-) Maybe your area has

something like *that*?

The co-pay is worth it if you can possibly manage it.

I am on a fixed income too and things are always tight so I do understand that

allright.

Good luck.

Re: Chronic Pain Fuels Boom in Opioids/pandy

It's hard to get them or it is here in Las Vegas.. This place cares only

about visitors not about residents..

My heart goes out to Netty too.. It's so , so hard. You have to jump

through hoops to get a doctor to prescribe them.. I think the propaganda

portrayed on TV has influenced this crack down so those of us that need the

medication can't get it or forced to buy of the streets. It's a hell of a trap

we are being forced to live through..Feeling part time relief and going

without is added hell.
