Last week I asked for some advice as to how to deal, with my doc, about pain meds. I calmly explained my situation and she finally gave me the meds.
ThankYou to those who took the time to talk to me.

Congrats on getting your meds, and getting the doctor to understand! I think we all know how hard that is to do. Well done :)

I hope the meds work great! xoxox

I don't know why it takes practically an act of congress to get our dr's to listen to us but that's pretty much how it is for everyone in CP. How many times do we see this topic on the discussion board? That pretty much says it all.

Thank goodness you got them,and that is the important thing and like everyone else I hope they'll help you to get some much needed relief!

I am in a similar situation. I think that some people have taken advantage of the system and well-intentioned Dr's and now they are very careful with meds, that just makes it more difficult for us, the people who really need them. It is truely a bummer becasue you feel like you are begging and lets not ignore the stigma that goes along with it.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
