"Opioid over prescribing is a big problem. I write this as a repeat prescription receiver of (and addict too) codeine. Guidelines say 2 months post surgery, but I was on it before so we're at... hmm, 4 years now? Can't do without my 120mg a day... " The GP could refer you to a pain clinic. Or review your pain - it could have a neuropathic element then you'd need different meds. Please see your GP. | |||

"Big pharma manipulating the fda no way never lol Well given they fund the fda by about 75%....what could go wrong with their independence? " ‘Fund’ by being charged by the fda to review any submissions. This is where the 75% comes from. It’s the same in the UK.

"Sorry I have to be “that guy” as not seen anyone say it (not read every post) but… When the Covid vaccines were rushed through and people dared question ethics (and profit margins) or the implicit collusion of pharma and medical practitioners, instead of being labelled as “cautious vaccine hesitants” the pro-vaxxers (many of whom were evangelical in their beliefs) labelled us “anti-vaxxers” and “conspiracy theorists”. Some went so far as to call the vaccine hesitant murderers and wanted us excluded from society and the job market. It really showed people’s true colours and what a nasty groupthink bunch some are. Conflating hesitancy with being anti-vax was fucking stupid!" Bloody anti vaxxer! | |||

They have specialist nurses, anaesthetists and psychologist. They look at pain holistically. They have additional treatments in their arsenal, like acupuncture and Botox, psychotherapy and spinal injections.
They will have greater knowledge and know opioids and opiate are not a cure all. | |||

"I've received guided facet injections for a spine issue which helped for quite a while " Had them many years ago before a discectomy and then a fusion . I found it the most painful experience I've ever had , when the anaesthetic wore of I had to go straight back in because the pain was absolutely unbearable, I thought a Discogramme was painful, but the facet joint injections were on another level . I've been fine since my fusion and have a very physical manual job , I get sciatica on long drives but it's manageable. I must have tried every pain med available before my op and the only thing that seemed to help was morphine which I enjoyed a bit too much and had to be weaned of it. | |||

"I just had shoulder surgery and they where gobsmacked that I refused to take a prescription and made me sign paperwork saying I refused painkillers when I was discharged. It aches for 3 days. Drugs are over prescribed. The amount of people who pop pills for a headache self diagnosing it as a migraine is crazy. " You make a good point. The next question then. Is why are they being over prescribed (in some cases). | |||

"I just had shoulder surgery and they where gobsmacked that I refused to take a prescription and made me sign paperwork saying I refused painkillers when I was discharged. It aches for 3 days. Drugs are over prescribed. The amount of people who pop pills for a headache self diagnosing it as a migraine is crazy. You make a good point. The next question then. Is why are they being over prescribed (in some cases). " But are they? | |||

"Not that I'm a joker and I'm not a smoker and I'm certainly not a midnight toker, but aren't there supposed to be some pain relief benefits from the odd puff on Mary Jane? Or even now the assorted oils that can be scored in the high street Holland barret shops? I'm and advocate for it. In any of its forms. Its helped me tremendously. But the 'stoner' image needs to change but ignorance is rife. If its from the ground its sound. Cbd oils with the thc removed yes, but the strength of it these days the mental health crisis that comes along with it no.... Mr Crisis this crisis that. Dont blame the plant for an entire list of actual mental health inducing problems. If you can point me to the actual studies and evidence that prove this I'd happily listen but to say someone has mental health issues because of the devils lettuce is absurd Get on Google scholar plenty of empirical evidence in peer reviewed journals on this matter.....that you can access yourself.... Don't worry about the countless CPN's and other medical professionals I have contact with, who witness first hand psychosis due to the "devil's lettuce" that is on a par with crack psychosis.... And not forgetting the people who come in and out of rehabs attend NA etc because the devils lettuce has ripped there's and there family's life apart.... Mr I'll rephrase my orginial point, those who do suffer with mental health crisis due to thc...... Mr Witnessed first hand psychosis?! Are you for real? It certainly doesn't cause hallucinations or delusions. Thats an entirely different kind of drug your talking about. You'll have to send me a link to that one because I can't find that anywhere haha and its easy to just say Google has the answer and not even back yourself up. And to say its just as destructive as crack is nonsense. Youre probably a tory too" I used cannabis to hep me relax after loosing my daughter. And after being prescribed diazepam, I couldn’t function, I had 3 other children that needed me. I then returned to the doctor and asked for something more mild, where I could function after a sleep. And oh my god they prescribed me an anti depressant that knocked me for 6 for two days!! Turns out after seeing a psychiatrist for a different matter that what I was prescribed was actually dangerous and should have never been given to me in that situation! Pleased I only took one!so I turned to cannabis, one to two a night before bed did me well. Until I no longer needed it. I’m all good now don’t take anything and not on any meds for a single thing!. And I’m not psycho lol. Mrs x | |||
