In Real Pain
UpdatedI'm at roads end. I'm a paraplegic living in west palm beach. I poop in a bag and pee in a bag. I have three major pressure wounds and am in pain all day every day. All Dr's seem to give me is baclofen, neurontin and sleep aids that do not work for my pain. I have two kids that I can hardly take care of and these last three years have been hell. Before my accident I was a union iron worker doing very well for my family. Now that I'm hurt and actually tried to get help it seems there is none. But somehow people are selling these pills on the street and you can tell there's nothing wrong with them, but somehow they have no problem getting these scripts for the main purpose to sell... But people like myself can't get what they need for real pain. It should be a crime to allow stuff like this to go on. I'm just venting on how hard it can be for real pain suffers to get help, but you see crack heads selling their scripts which they seem to get without a problem. What is this world coming to?

I'm in a similar situation. I too wonder how anyone gets the pain meds they need in or near W. Palm Beach. I can't get a doctor to give me any and I'm a 65 year old woman with several very painful diseases.
