These articles scare me as I know someone in chronic pain and they get treated like SHIT at their clinic( place is always counting pillls, the NP had been getting snippy with her and saying she should have more pills, so she of course snapped back...low and behold two weeks later a pill count, which was passed) ANYWAY, my point is this person is REALLY TRULLY in PAIN and sits around MISERABLE all fucking day because she is scared to take an extra percocet if they need it. She sits around looking slightly sucicidal(thought doesn't or trys not to complain) from the pain she is in. My point being this is all this damn thing is gonna do, make doctors TOO SCARED to TREAT pattients from fear of loosing their licensce...cats already outta the bag, after 10 years of people banging oxys/heroin, well "lets just make it harder for people to get a script of 120 percocets a month, with a low dose of something time released on the side, that will solve shit"... Like really, we have a generation of junkies on our hand, me being one of them, I just see more people relaspeing, more methadone/suboxone clinics opening, and this making if fucking impossible for somebody to get pain meds who really needs them, and turns to the street for treatment...but thats already been said..And I don't see this solving a problem at all, because lets face it, when you first start out you are not thinking "can't wait to get hooked" but "I can do it, I'm not like that guy" I DON't care who you are, that is what you BELEIVE until its you, and with dope and other opiates being so prevelealnt now I just see more street addicts... I'm starting to stray away from the point and ramble...my main point is this isnt going to help anything, they are delusional if they believe it is, it's mainly just going to hurt people who are in pain, because if you truly are an addict 120 15's or 30's is only gonna last ya a week or so BEFORE your on the street looking again anyway...now if you aren't an addict you'll be set for the month but I'm straying
Edit: Oh, the person I am talking about had 4 back surgerieres in life and was in a car wreck which left them with metal rods goin all through there legs after having there legs pretty much crushed and having to get pulled out by jaws of life in the wreck to even get them loose...was prescribe 90(some months 120) 30's but the doctor retired, every new doctor laughed at the roxi sciprt and this persons pain, and they were given 120 percocet...the are 60 years old, this is my aunt, not a dealer, or fellow drug useer...fucked up right? She hobbles around all day, and if it rains you do not want to be around... it's sad that this is going to be the people(or is the people) that this is going to affect...if your an addict YOU WiLL find a doctor or get it on the street, none of this shit matters....
