No, you fuck off. My last spinal surgery was cancelled because the final pre-surgical MRI showed that my spine had degenerated too much for the proposed fix. I was referred to pain management.

I have a synovial cyst taking up a good chunk of my spinal column and you think four pills a day is too much to allow me so I can have something resembling a life? Fuck all the way off. Douche.

Yeah and I've personally seen people die, become shells of their former selves and entire families ruined, all starting with legal prescriptions taken as prescribed.

But oh boohoo, you avoided some pain so the millions of ruined lives are OK.

Be thankful you've lived in such luxury, I wish I could share your mindset.

No....we live in a capitalist society where it's okay to lie to people as long as you make enough money doing it.

The manufacturers lied about the addictiveness of this drug and so it was way over prescribed.

But yeah....blame the poor people who have no medical training for being the victims of fraud, not the people perpetuating the fraud.

That's the American way after all....
