>Dear Gwen, Hi, I'm Sally. I don't think we have talked before, but I know how you feel. We should have control over our medication program (within the limits of our knowledge of course). However, since you know your boady, basically they are demeaning you and turning you into a wayward child who is ignorant and stupid.

Only two pain pills a day with heavy pain is sadistic. Have you printed out the information that Helen Dynda has supplied us. Please look at the recent emails. Also go to http://www.adhesions.org and research and print out things to help you in your own personal battle with the health care system.

why do these pain clinics PUSH the METHADONE
drug so heavily, what ever happended to the long acting
percoset-wich is oxy-contin. My doc. said it is too heavily
abused on the streets so i can't have it. What the @$%# does
that have to do with me! Why should i suffer cuz some junkies
decided to get the idea to start selling it on the streets!
The Methadone IS dissrupting my sleep, I wake at least 5x a
night, yes i told my doc this and she said, she's never heard of
Methadone doing that, most people claim they sleep better. Well
not me and how do explain it AGAIN that it is the Methadone that's
disrupting my sleep.?
