I had a follow-up exam at the Doctor’s office, regarding all my new strange pains…..and it kinda left me feeling pissed off. Let me explain…..
See I have this chronic pain of a disease and my boyfriend doesn’t. He goes to Doc for pulling his back out and back spasms and he gets a script for a month’s worth of Vicodin, Skelaxin and what ever else he wants. I go after a spooked horse tramples me ( literally runs me down), bucks me in the leg and kicks me up into the air and I land on my hip/back….what do I get ?…. 12 Flexeril, yup only 12! That’s 4days worth! Get some x-rays and here you go little girl! Good Luck…..
Screw that! I go back now a month later with all this weird stuff going on and do some bloodwork (good) to check for Lyme Disease and/or West Nile and whatever other kind of bug born illness there is…..and only 12 more Friggin Flexiril!! What the fuck Doc?….. Is he (Gary, my boyfriend) just a big, old, baby boy who deserves to be put out of his misery, so we don’t need to listen to his whiney ass complain?…. Or am I just really making it all up, maybe I don’t complain enough? Hhmmm…It makes me wonder sometimes how these doctors work, why don’t I get any pain killers, DAMN IT!!??? 
So he’s actually laughs at me when I come home last night and say’s “what did you get?”….and laughs some more, because poor Jenn is really suffering and he can’t figure out why I end up with Shit for meds! Go Figure….the story of my life, car accident after car accident and they send me home with Motrin! Oh Gee, Doctor we better do a CT scan, she may have fractured her neck….but they’ll not give me one damn thing for PAIN!!! EVER….never!
So I don’t have a paper trail filled with script after script of narcotic use over the years, nope…never get them, so how the hell can I abuse them. I figured that’s what they are thinking when I tell them I have FMS, but I DO NOT take meds for the pain….so yeah….that friggin means I NEED SOME!! God, it infuriates me to no end! Story of my life…..
V~ If you read this you will totally agree this is how the world works, I can’t explain it, but it even happens right in my own home!!
Yup the people who don’t really need it, get it and people who do are just fucked. I see these damn drug addicts walking around stoned, so high they can barely move, they don’t work, they just get high, now WHERE are they getting these pills? Oxycontin, percocets, anything like that? On the street Oxycontin here sells for 80.00 a pill for an 80. WTF? Yet *I* can’t get fucking percocet or my duragesic patch back. I have NEVER abused them, never went back early for medications, never went to different doctors and pharmacies. I don’t have drug seeking behaviors, so why won’t they help people like me…like you? I will never understand it. *SIGH*

You are right V, people are abusing them with alcohol to get high, and we just want them for what they were designed for….PAIN! It may be even easier to start getting them off the streets, if I could afford to I definately would. It makes me feel like an addict, which I certainly can’t be, since they are not even willing to offer me any drugs! It’d be nice once in awhile to feel like the next person, or like my boyfriend, who I have to beg now to give me some of his!I can’t figure it out either, and the sad thing is…. I kinda hope that I have some other illness come out of these tests, so that maybe I can finally get a prescription, this time I will fight til the end! *big sigh*
