@rangerrebew Tomorrow is the day I go to doc to get prescriptions refilled - oh, my god, one is an opioid!
Doc has to use special federal prescription pad for that and I have to sign my name that I got it and it's only good for one month, so he writes three, so I can go three months without coming back to see him for those pills. The drugstore also questions me when I get that scrip. My other pills are six months of pills.
Leave my pain pills alone! I have living to do and those pills cut down the fibro pain. Unless you have pain from every muscle in your body, you don't know what that pain is like. I take three other pills for fibro, too. One stops tremor in my hands, one helps me sleep, one cuts down excess electricity in the brain that goes to muscles - I could not function without that one. So that is four pills for fibro. Those years ago when this hit, the neurologist diagnosed it and one of the pills, then sent me to pain doc. He was so fine and worked with me until he got the right amount of each pill to do the job.
The US congress, and the state medical board, should not be able to stop my pain pills but they are making it so hard to get them, doc wants to change them to something else. There is someone who wants to sell me a product made from marijuana for fibro pain - no, I do not want that and it is illegal in my state. I'm not looking to be a vegetable who can't think due to taking mind altering drugs - I just want the pain to be as low as possible without screwing up my thinking.
