HAHAHAHAHA, what it's "worth" and what you can get for it are worlds apart Lou.

Again, not every one can do it. Different pain for different people. Some people are more active and that aggrivates the pain...not everyone is a keyboard warrior like me.
Good morning Woodmiesters
Markus, that is really quite a story and my hat is off to you for doing what you had to do. Keep up the good work because I'm sure there are times when you're tempted to go back to the "old ways". Just like other stories I am familiar with, that sounds like a dead end Street.

Mornin Stan!

Thankfully it is not easy to get hold of the pills. I'd probably have to re-enroll in the pain mgmt clinic since I cancelled my last appt and never rescheduled. My primary care doc will not prescribe any long term pain meds so cannot go there to ask for them either. She will only prescribe for major injury short term pain relief.

I guess this is one instance where the red tape works in my favor. Ironically, my primary care doc just broke her clavicle and is prolly convalescing at home with the help of opioids.
