I knew two people who were too sick to take the medicine and died. And I had another friend who was smart enough to do research and refused to take the medicine, she also died.

I am a single mom who is just trying to stay alive for her sons. If not for them, I would prefer death over feeling like this every day.

The only time I feel half myself is when I have pain meds that help bring back who I used to be before the medicine. But they are hard to come by too in Seattle.

All the rare side effects. LOL. It said nothing about how they might last forever.

No doctor really cares. Not one doctor has asked to see the lab reports during the time I was on treatment.

It is all there in the lab reports proving their negligence, that is why they didn't want to give them to me.

Take care, write anytime.

Sue, So Sorry to hear about not being able to recieve the pain meds you need! I'm tierd of all the parinoia about pain meds. I'm very lucky that I have a PCP that understands their importance to those with chronic pain. As I have said before, in my state, New Mexico, pain meds are watched very closely! 1. They cannot be filled more than three days before the perscription it do to be refilled! 2. we have to take a Urine test every six months to make sure we are not abusing them or other non perscription drugs! 3. my doctor will not write a script over the amuont I take daily that he has perscribed!
Most people just listen to the "FAKE NEWS" by the media! Also the hospital addministration or medical addministration dictates to young doctors when they can perscribe the meds.
Sad!

@sueleerock You would prefer death over the way you are feeling and the only reason you stay alive is for your sons.

If you felt like you could not keep yourself safe who would you reach out to?

It sounds like you feel hopeless. Other than your sons do you have adults such as, family, friends, social worker, therapists, medical providers, etc. that support you?
