Thank you for reply. You are correct in your idea on medication but I think you are missing my point. Sometimes I leave out what I want to say. Are you familiar with the use of Fentynal? I wasn’t and it cost me. I have spent sometime researching Fentynal so I do know what I am going to tell you. First of all it was never intended for people with chronic pain. It was suppose to be for people with terminal cancer or for patients who had surgery that caused extreme pain and only for a few days. It is a synthetic of heroine and 5 to six times stronger. Real bad premise to give this to anyone on a long term bases. As it has turned out, it is criminal. Those people who manufactured and sold doctors on this idea of use are being sued. Too bad it took thousands of people’s lives before someone woke up. That is modern medicine and my one of my complaints about it. It nearly took mine and no one did anything for me until I did. I was on this crap from 2011 to the end of 2017. I was in hell the whole time I was on it. Not one doctor I was seeing even paid attention to my symptoms and they were obvious. They fact that they were making money off the prescription really add to the whole mess. Not everyone has chemical sensitivity like I do, so I only needed 25 mg to subdue my pain. That didn’t work out for everyone else. Those people needed twice as much and they suffered their fate sooner. I use to go to this supposed pain specialist clinic. Since I use to work in an area where there were a lot of drug addicts, the similarity’s hit me when I went there. People were stoned out of their minds. One day on a visit of mine this older gentleman was riding up in the elevator with me. He told me this place was great. He told me he could get anyone of a number of pain killers here and started tell me the varieties he had access to. Candy, he was talking about this crap as though it was candy. Who ran this place, doctors. Not drug dealers, doctors. If I said I was in extreme pain to a doctor and since I was on a low dose, I encouraged to up my dosage. I never did, it sounded stupid to me. They never paid attention to my decline in over all health and they just give a dam. That is way drug dealers operate. Then I have heard the excuses as to that the doctors were misinformed about this drug. The pharmaceutical reps who were promoting this crap, weren’t telling them the truth about this drug. If it were someone else other than a doctor, you might get me to buy that. If I was a doctor why would I take the word of a sales rep with little to no medical training of any kind and not read up on this medication myself before giving it to one of my patients? That is also criminal. Ignorance in the eyes of the law is no excuse I use to hear from my brother and he was a lawyer. This part also pisses me off. Even when the doctors that I see now, who knew what had happened to me and all my medical problems that this crap had caused me, they didn’t say a thing like you need to stop using this stuff. Since I don’t know how much you know about where I was at at that time, I was starving to death. I had lost about 40 lbs. I think I mentioned that I had a pancreatitis attack. After that my pancreas had stopped functioning. No one could figure out why I even had that attack let alone why I was starving. There was no physical damage to my pancreas and they had done all the tests on this subject. One doctor even suggested that I should have my gallbladder removed. That would have been so much better!! No one ever looked into the medication I was on as a possibility. I only was on two. I have thyroid disease so that is one of them and Fentynal. All I did was look up Fentynal and possible problems related to it’s use. It was there in plain English and even my 5 year old grandson could read it. Stupid doesn’t describe this situation. I decided to stop on my own. I told my doctors that this was what I was going to do. Only one of them was willing to help me in this and it wasn’t much of a help as it turned out. I had no idea what would happen during the process of detox from this stuff. I have only heard it described from some people I knew and by reading about this. The neurologist I was seeing was the one who agreed to help me in this.and prescribed two medications to help in this detox. I did this at home. I tried using those medications and the made things worse for me. I couldn’t use them. Chemical sensitivity. The first time I took just one pill, and tried to go to the bathroom, I passed out. All I did is get up from the chair I was sitting in and the next thing was waking up with this large knot on the back of my head. The room was spinning around and I couldn’t focus. There was this dent in wall where I had smashed the back of my head into. The rest of my detox was drug free. About three days into this detox, my pancreas started working again. One of the weird things about have Central Sensitization Syndrome, at least for me, is I can feel everything, maybe too much. The feeling of starving is awful. That feeling stopped and I could see the steady improvement of weight gain that was happening. I was eating the same quantities and quality of food and only weight loss everyday, Now that stopped. Everyone feels pain. People that have Central Sensitization Syndrome feel it 4 to 5 times worse and that is only one aspect of this syndrome. Here is something you may or not agree with me on but I find it a reality. Almost all pharmaceutical drugs that are man made eventually will cause you some sort of problem if you use it long enough. Your body is not designed to have that stuff in it. You can’t process it. Yes I am a extreme case and way too sensitive to that, but I am still a human being like everyone else. The only difference is I react to these drugs sooner, sometimes right away. That is it. There is a reason why pharmaceutical companies now when you see their adds on tv and they put all those possible side affects at the end of those adds. They know this information and they giving you a heads up. They are just hoping that you aren’t paying attention. I find it amusing when the commercial ends with ask your doctor, Really?

One last thing about me, unless doctors come up with a way of permanently fixing your nerves or your nervous system, there will be no relief from the pain you are experiencing. The damage that was caused by that surgeon will never heal and the pain will never go away. Reality is what it is the rest of this show by our healthcare system is just that, a show.
