I am stuck with pain forever. I don't take all the pills I get,
but my point is that 8.5 pills per day is not extraordinary and certainly wouldn't require doctor shopping.

Sorry to hear your pain is forever. Hope you get well soon. Your right thought on your point.

I take 4 vitamins a day myself. It's not hard to imagine 8.

You are correct. According to a couple of relatives (MDs), this is on the high side of normal consumption, but understandable considering the spinal problems Rush had. This is nothing more than a witch hunt.

Then why buy them illegally? If it is "normal" and he can just get a scrip and run down to CVS and buy them, why in the world would he buy them off the street or have scrips from multiple docs?
