I have Neuropathy in both legs from the knees down and in both hands. I've had this for 10 plus years with it getting worse daily. (and no I am NOT Diabetic) I also have a broken right ankle and torn ligament that I was rewarded with while cleaning carpet 3 months ago. I thought it was just sprained. So much for thinking...
I am allergic to Lyrica and Gabapentin and they do nothing to help My pain either.
My pain gets so bad I'm nauseous and can't eat.
Now back to yesterday. I've been out of My pain meds for a week as My Doctor is only allowed to Rx 2 weeks of My meds. I saw Him on 12/01/17 and got the Rx. I made that last until the 18th.
After spending the last 5 days in bed in high levels of pain I finally gave up and went to ER for some relief. After getting there I was Checked in and about 15 minutes later was Triaged and then back out to the Waiting Room.
About 2.5 hours later they get Me in a room and about another 45 minutes or so I get to see the PA. She says that She was looking at My records and asked about My broken ankle. I said it was still broken and the Tendon was still torn because I have no Insurance and no money to pay up front to get it fixed. I said I guess that it's healing in the wrong place. I told Her I was here for some pain relief for My Neuropathy. She evaluated My feet for a few minutes.
She replied that They can't write Rx for My pain meds. I told Her I know that I'm here for some in house meds please, I've been in pain for the last week and need a break- PLEASE ! Then She said OK and I thanked Her. She left to go type up the orders.
About 15 minutes later in comes the Nurse with Discharge papers. I asked about meds and She said "I'll go check" a few minutes later the Nurse returns with 1 extended relief pain pill and a vial/hypodermic. I asked what do we have and She said it was Toradol. I had never had that so I figured what the hell let's give it a shot (no pun intended) so She gives Me the pain pill (I bit the pill in half so I could save the other half for Christmas Day with the Family and at least have a tolerable pain level for the day.) and starts preparing the shot.
I get stuck and tell her Thank You and please tell the PA the same. I I go out to wait for My ride. Counting travel time I spent about 6 hours just to get a break from CONSTANT PAIN.
This "war on Opioids" is a bunch of crap for those of Us that have a legitimate use for them.
This Thread is about Opioids not Alcohol.
You are entitled to your opinion but please stay on topic here.
Thank You.
Merry Christmas
Oh my god!!!
