I read your post #11.
You’re pissed because the ER doc refused to write you a scrip when they asked you about your broken ankle and blah blah blah, for which you evidently expect free treatment.
My uncle was still being prescribed oxy for the pain related to the degeneration of his hip joints, which were also scheduled for replacement at the time of his death.
As a side effect, the opiates also affected his coping mechanisms for emotional stress.
Since you’re a self-proclaimed, publicly/welfare funded, expert - why don’t you tell the class exactly where the line between legitimate pain control use and the off-label side effects is?
You are WRONG! I’m not pissed because I knew before I went to ER that it was never a possiblity of getting a Rx for Pain Meds from them.
I went in for the Neuropathy, The PA asked about the ankle. I don’t expect free treatment but I don’t have much choice at this time.
Let Me ask you something. Can you live on $1200.00 a month ? I doubt it. That’s what I live on. I worked My ass off starting at 10 years old, Paid into the SS fund and I expect to get some of it back like the system is supposed to. If you got a problem with that I don’t care!!!

My we are slinging the Horse Crap aren’t we. The “line” as you call it will be different for each individual. As far as off label side effects try looking at whatever drug you want info on details of it with the online Drug information site of your choice.
