Re: : Please tell me what you think/DRUGS-- To Faith

[Guest guest]

Yep. I have to visit the doc each month for my refills. I really don't mind

it. I do understand why they are so closely controlled. What I take for pain

is a drug that some people would take for fun. Sad but true. What alot of

those people don't even consider is that some of them are taking doses so high

that they will ruin their liver with the tylenol that is in vicodin. I suppose

if you want to get high bad enough, then to hell with your liver at the time.

hugs,

HYDROCODONE, and VICADIN are baaaaaaaaaad drugs..and they are verry popular

on the streets' and druggies can SELL them for PREMIUM. That is why

thosedrugs are limited and one has to get an RX from their physician each

timethey need a refill.....Hugs, Faithy -------Original Message-------From:

me what you thinkI think that most doctors have never experienced true pain.

Maybe if theydid, they wouldn't be so stingy with the pain meds

/Mi Re: Please tell me what you thinksame with me, only i just

started asking for something for pain.i think the truth is the docs are

getting audited more everytime theywrite a script for a controlled substance

so i really do feel andbeleive that they are now not even bothering to

acknowledge oursymptoms nor are they making the proper diagnoses so they

won't haveto write scripts and treat us, looking at us like we are nuts.i

have been close to writing a list of all my dxs, all my meds, andall my

ongoing symptoms getting worse, handing a copy to my docs andasking them to

sign my copy that they did receive the informationfrom me. this would be

evidence, in a court of law, of their ongoingnegligence, if needed.hang in

there, it is really hard,marg>> I'm new to this

share our experiences with everyone on the listas to what treatments do and

don't work for us, pls always check with yourdr. Some treatments are

dangerous when given along with other meds as wellas to certain health

conditions or just dangerous in general.2. If you are in a difficult

situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don'tbe afraid to ask for help. It

is the first step to trying to make thatsituation better.3. To unsubscribe

the e-mail is:Fibromyalgia_Support_Group-unsubscribe@.... Also,

it is not uncommon for more than one member to be feeling bad atthe same

time when it comes to flares and b/c of that potentially takesomething

another member says the wrong way. And that includes the thingsthat one

member may find funny (even if it's laughing at fibro itself) eventhough we

who deal with illness whether one such as fibro or multipleillnesses try to

keep a sense of humor.5. Pls

let's be gentle with each other, and if you are having a bad day plslet us

know so that we can do our best to offer our support.Have a nice day

everyone.
