I am outraged!!! The pharmacist just called and was asking me all kinds of questions about an anxiety meds I'm on and saying the Dr shouldn't be prescribing this because I don't need it. Wth, what right does the pharmacist have over my Dr?! I'm shaking I'm so mad.

Had a really bad day. I simply asked my pcp if I can have something for the pain from me falling. He sent me a message back saying I was drug seeking and dismissed me as a patient. I've cried for hours. I just wanted something for the pain 💔

I fell and been admitted in hospital for broken leg and knee sprain. So much pain and guess what they're giving me? 2 tylenol every 6 hours. I can hardly stand the pain. They are using lidoderm patches too. But it seems like neither are helping. I'm asking for a patient advocate!

They say opiods will make us addicted, so by not giving them to us is helping us. 1st of all, it's my body and I've never had a prob in 15 yrs on them. Now I have a prob, being in torturous pain from not being on them. Losing friends due to suicide, but thanks for "protecting us"
