Genre Science Comment by K4miko i didnt start developing problems until everything was taken away. 10 years after 2 back surgeries, ive lost so much in my life, people cant stand to hear me scream in pain, and since you assholes cant tell the difference between an addict and someone in pain even though its literally your job is destroying more lives than saving, the problem is defunct doctors, doctors should get to know their patients needs and not be mandated. now we have more statistical suicides and depression than ever. people suffering from chronic pain are being treated like criminals. its fucked up. actually do your job you absolute self obsessed dickwad. 2020-11-16T19:22:52Z Comment by StLuciferzz You betrayed me. You hurt me. You are the medical doctors. You Rx me oxycodone steady since 1985...now you won't give me a thing. Nothing, because Addiction doctors can't prescribe for pain, and I don't have a family doctor because she dumped me. It just keeps getting worse. 2018-10-28T19:40:17Z
