Spriggy,
Thanks for your response. Thanks to a good friend, who had a couple or spare Vicodin, I survived. Also, this doc had ABSOLULUTLY no qualms about writing the Rx -- not only that but he gave me 750's and told me how he hated the "24 hr wait" thing.
You know, I am aware that I should not feel this way, but I really get pissed at those who have not been through back pain trying to judge how I "feel".
Add to that my "history"; and with so many physicians, its "Oh-oh here she comes, watch out, all she wants is drugs!"
Don't people ever stop and think that former addicts can have real pain too??!
Hey everyone, esp Spriggy, just thanks for being there for me!! You guys are the greatest!
MamaPS: my doctors office will not give out samples of "controlled substances", benzos, or opiates.
------------------------------------> Do you think the doctor's office would have any on hand to give you until you can get to the pharmacy the next AM?
