Prescription drugs are way over prescribed to the point it should be criminal. 3 out of 4 ads on TV are pushing drugs for everything and we wonder why there’s a drug problem.
Wife and I are in our 70s and not one prescription drug between us. I’ll do 400mg of ibuprofen every couple of weeks for aches and pains and I don’t like doing that.
Had a bad knee issue, swelled up, wouldn’t bend after a bad twist. Went to the ER, they said I’d would need knee surgery, put an immobilizer on and tried to give me some opioids. I refused and had to sign a refusal document saying I wouldn’t take them...that is unbelievable . Never had the surgery either...Itworked itself out and back to normal.
Get a knee brace. It really helps as you get older.
Congrats on giving knee surgery a big thumbs down.
I hate the idea of getting chopped into for any reason when the body knows what it’s doing, does it very well if we just let it do that.
