I have to thank Deborah Diane for reminding me about the doctors who prescribe drugs for their patients. When I saw my doctor last week and told her my pain is becoming worse could she prescribe something for me she said. "Her group had just had a talk about how many people who have children, the kids take their pain pills and that is how the problems start". There are no children at my house so that is not a problem and she did prescibe a drug for me but I had problems with it so now she has prescribed a pain patch.

Do you think the pain patch will ease the pain?

I only take pills to ease pain when I cannot stand it.

Me too. I always have something hurting, so I am used to it. I only take them when it gets worse.

The medicine bottles of pain pills normally have a design that defies kids' attempts to open it.The pain patch may do its work if you stick them on acupoints

I have seen kids open those with no problem but some adults can't seem to open them.

Medications can, indeed, present some issues. But without any of them, life would be much, much worse. The thing is this: Joe and Suzy NoExperience have become the alternative treatment team with their opinions and online "research."

@KuznVinny I don't understand who are Joe and Suzy and if they have no experience how could they help anyone.

@Marcyaz Exactly. Yet they are willing to diagnose or offer medical suggestions. Don't know about this? Research, for two examples, alkaline water and colloidal silver.

Did you use the pain patch more than once?
@Marcyaz (35316)

One time only for 12 hours than you use another one after another 12 hours if needed.

I never once thought it would be ok to take mom or dad's prescription meds!

I'm confused - the doctor said that to you? Or Deborah Diane said her group said that. If it was the doctor, doesn't she know you don't have children living at home any longer? There wouldn't be any danger of your children taking your pain medication.

I hope it helps you out! I hardly take anything no matter how much something hurts like stomach, back or headache. Taking medications is my very last resort.

Not taking medicines is good. When we need it really bad, even a small dosage works like magic ..nice that pain patch is helping. Hugs..

Opiods have become an epidemic and are over prescribed long term and I think that is the issue these days at least it is here in Connecticut

Well, it's just best to hide those pills if there's children around. I hope you don't get addicted using the pain patch.

If you don't require pain meds and you ask an ethical doc for them, you won't get them. The problem is too many unethical docs which leads to all kinds of pain med abuse.
