Hi I agree, but the problem is the US Gov't involvement with Drs. Unless they are awful 90% of Dr's do not want their patients in pain. The elderly if issued pain med see a specialist. Here they are given tests - suicidal, pills counted at end of month before refill. And the pharmacy has no problem yelling name and medicine which has stigma Yet any age over 10 can drink and in some households steal the liquor and drink Some states now cocaine, meth crystals? Hard drugs are available for free. No program just bring Dr's note. I bet if one of those who voted for pain meds no cost are enjoying their high. In the meantime your Mom or Pops is not enjoying the daily pain
1 for the bad guys 0 for the elder population who we should respect and want to enjoy life
