I agree. It’s not that alternative methods aren’t helpful, and I still try to use them. It’s just that the damage I’ve had from old injuries is only going to get worse and meds are my last resort. But don’t worry, the Feds will make sure that I don’t get the right amount of them, as to them every pain patient is a drug seeker. I’m 65. I’m pretty much medically at risk, but if I have to someday make the choice between being addicted to an opioid and not being able to get out of bed, I’d go with addiction a hundred times out of a hundred.
