No, that was a good link, thanks!

Along with the activism, we need researchers to work harder on substances that will allow us to safely maintain a lower tolerance level for a longer time and a humane way to regularly control pain flares and take regular 'holidays' from our meds.

This would be sanity, not sensationalism. It would also be less money for the drug companies, but so much better for all of us over the long run.
Maybe someday.....

Re: MSNBC Article [drug seeking behavior] [Re: borrowedtime]

MSNBC hypocites are out there with the "drug-seeking behavior" phrase. As though this was sufficient evidence necessary to incarcerate a body for years. We have a press corp completely without an ethical compass, doing the dirty work of government agencies, who are unable to even verify that the Lipitor I buy at my local chain pharmacy is legit; yet they want to protect me from "counterfit" Lipitor from Canada.
Frankly I'd just as soon take my chances with one of the "scoundrel" docs, they portray on MSNBC, as trust the FDA/DEA to figure out what is fair and safe. These agencies are an habitual ongoing failure - yet year after year, both parties continue their incompetence with bigger budgets. We talk about responsibilty and holding people accountable, but these 3-letter bozos and their political hacks never get held responsible for anything; especially the misery they and their colassal egos inflict every year.

That is a very damaging article for the world of internet prescriptions. It is sad that a few bad apples ALWAYS make it tough for everyone else.
