I'm not throwing in the towel yet Dan. Sue and I are just plain sick of insurance companies and doctors and phamacists. I've been taking Methadone for break through pain for about 9 years now. I get it in liquid form because my body doesn't seem to absorb the pills the way it should. I use so little of the stuff I end up throwing away most of the bottle because it expires before I use it all. I got a refill last Monday and the pharmacist called me back to the phamacy and told me the methadone shouldn't be taken with the Klonopin I've been taking; another drug I've been on for at least 10 years. I asked her why and she said if I get too high it could suppress my breathing. I know she was just doing her job but implying I get high from it hit a raw nerve in me. I've been accused of being a drug searcher or flat out faking it ever since I found out about the ruptured disk in my back in 1982. You heard about me loosing my disability insurance? The video they had showed me raking a pile of weeds but didn't show me slumped over the tailgate of my truck three seconds later because I could hardly stand. And I have a brother in-law that never fails to get some remark in about me not working when ever we get together for holidays or other occations. I don't mean to be taking it out on you; I'm just tired of the BS I have to put up with just to TRY to live a somewhat normal life. Shadow-Dan |
