Suebreen hi I'm sharonmay7. I totally agree with you!!!! I have been with my pain dr. For 20+years. And the only time he gives me a hard Time is if he finds other meds in you pee sample. I've taken a different pain pill a few times cause I was not home and was having a hard time. But like he said you should ALWAYS be aware what u put in your system!!! A different drug could up set your balance. That is how people end up dead. It took me years to learn how to use the medicine properly. I use the fentenol patch. And u forget sometimes cause it is always working. Once I left it on while working in my flower garden the next day when I woke up I was a mess. I did not understand that if your body temp. Warms up then the patch will down load all of the medicines at one time!!! Has anyone else out there who had this problem with the patch??? Thanks
