Where I live, one pain doctor lost his DEA number and can no longer prescribe narcotics. He was the go to guy for prescription drugs. His waiting room was an assembly line and constantly full of patients. After he went away another group took over. They were arrested, tried, and convicted. I have no doubt another doctor will take their place. There is too much money involved.

Who pays the bills for this crap? As if I don’t know.
We do since barky care covers this for the people who are on the dole.
