3. Pray you never need morphine.

You got that right. Had it once while 4 burly orderlies wrestled my dislocated right elbow back into place (after a soccer injury). I didn't "feel" a thing, but nevertheless my body reacted as though my arm was being torn off. Jimminy Christmas that is some strong stuff.

I had to be mainlined twice in a row with it in order to kill the pain from complications with my shockwave lythotripsy. Clots passing through one's kidney's HURT!

It felt like I was drowning each time. I have no idea why the hell people knock over 7-11's for the stuff, it's really not that pleasant, other than killing the pain. I guess it's when people USE IT INCORRECTLY, like when they don't have pain, that can cause problems. Far be it for us to blame the people for their own actions though, eh? :)
