and you hit on another aspect. You can't know how badly someone else hurts. I will not chastise another for taking a medication given by their doctor to relieve pain (feeling the doctor knows more about the situation than I do) I just consider myself to be VERY lucky that my health problems are not as debilitating as some others.
One of my favorite lines is: 'there but for the grace of God goes I...'

Jess I just meant pain medications for me in general. I once took Tylenal with Codiene for a tooth infection and I was so messed up I almost burned my apartment down trying to cook. I just can't function when ever I have taken them. And I am just talking about perscription pain meds , not over the counter. Fact is I can't stand to see people in pain. But I just get nervous about pain pills bacause I myself have seen in my own family people abuse them and get hooked . And about 5 years ago I had a very close girlfriend mix alcohal and pain pills together and died in her sleep a week after she got married. I guess it's more of a personal fear of them. And therefor I guess I would rather see someone try other alternatives before pills, but like I said to David I have never suffered with a bad back, but I have seen alot of people in great pain.
Your so right about the emotional and phisical deteriation that occurs when people are in constant pain.
