@jimhd i am currently trying PEA and myofascial therapy. I wanted to be treated as well as my vet treats my dog. If he is in pain, he receives pain pills, no questions asked.

Sadly, with many people abusing pain meds, we all have to suffer. My docs will NOT prescribe pain meds UNLESS I have undergone a procedure. Then, only enough to get through the painful part as decided by the doc. My docs know I don't ask for anything I don't need and then I only ask for a few. Still, they don't budge.

My vet doesn't have to deal with OD or drug abuse when she treats my dogs. I'm sure, though, that there are people who take medications prescribed for their pet. I've thought in the past that the vet should treat me - they charge a fraction of what orthopedists charge for a broken bone. And vets seem to be pretty caring and compassionate about their patients, more than some people doctors.
