I just got my self magazine in the mail yesterday and there is a large write-up about OPs. Apparently, this writer heard all the evils of online med buying, and they placed several orders from nine different OPs. They bought everything from xanax to clomid to vicodin.
They have a bi-line on the page that reads "if you self-prescibe, you have a fool for a doctor". It goes on to say that self mag dutifully reported the names of all these pharmacies and docs to the proper federations for investigation.
This really makes me angry, on several levels. Maybe it is just because I feel like no one could understand, especially a reporter, unless they themselves needed to use an OP. An article like this, in a magazine known widely for being fair and health-promoting, will do a lot to make more people think only drug addicts would use OPs.
