I've already found this forum to be very helpful. It's always comforting to know there are others with similar issues.

My story is simple. I have fibromyalgia (since 1999), and I'm sick of dealing with doctors. In my area doctors absolutely will not prescribe pain medication. I had an impacted wisdom tooth cut out and the doctor told me to take Tylenol and refused to write me a script for anything. When my mother was on her death bed, I asked the nurse to give her more morphine because I didn't want my mother to suffer in her passing. The nurse said she couldn't do it without a written order from the doctor--my mother died before that happened. I found that to be disgusting and it still pisses me off.

I work with victims of domestic violence and I want to keep working for as long as I can because this is my calling in life, but it gets harder and harder with every passing year. I take Cymbalta and flexeril for the fibro symptoms, but these do nothing to help during very bad spells. It's very frustrating.

And that's that.

Thank you all for having me here.

 
I daisymay, welcome to the board! So sorry to hear a bout all the suffering you have had and have to  endur. I'm a chronic pain victim myself but  was recently kicked off my pain meds by my pain management doctor but that is a story I would rather not discuss at the moment. I'm glad you have found the information you need to help you  live a more productful life. I know I have. Thrilled to have you aboard. If you have any questions, please feel free to just ask. The mods here are the best people you ever wanna know. Or, if I can be of assistance in anyway, please do not hesitate to ask. Once again, welcome to the family ;)

 
Wow that is sad and sickening how doctors act these days. I love places like this because it's shifting the power back to the people that need real help. The only advice is be careful cause they're people that are dishonest on here as well but our mods and administrative support helps combat that. Best of luck in gaining the help you need :-)

 
Thank you all so much.

Fargo, I've been wanting to respond to what you said for a long time. Sorry for the delay. I appreciate you sharing what you have shared, and I feel for you big time. It's rare to find a doctor who will give pain meds for chronic pain. It doesn't matter how bad the pain is, if it's chronic, they don't want to give meds. It's SAD. To be abruptly kicked off of medication is downright cruel. Chronic pain really does affect a person's quality of life in the most adverse of ways, and this is not being handled appropriately by the medical community. I'm hoping the very best for you.

 
Hi daisymay & welcome. I've been a member for 1 year & have found this site to be a God send! I was in pain management for 6 years & then a new doctor straight out of medical school took over my case & boom just like that took me of Vikings & said only trams for you. Same story different person. I suffered for 4 yrs until I stumbled upon the DBG. I'm sorry for your pain that's such a debilitating disease. Also so sorry about your mom. Glad your here & hope you find everything your looking for.:)

 
Massm, thank you for all that incredible information. I didn't realize it was quite that bad on doctors. Maybe I should give them a break. It's just sad that the pendulum seems to swing from one extreme to the other and there never seems to be a reasonable middle ground. And, as I mentioned earlier, doctors seem to really avoid prescribing pain meds for chronic pain, and now it seems more clear why. It doesn't help people like me, but I get it. Thanks again. :)

Mountaincat, I feel bad for you. It's so hard to deal with chronic pain and it's heartless to be cut off from something that worked only to be put on something that might help a headache. :(  I'm happy that you and I both (among many others who need help) found this site. Thank you for sharing, and I hope you're finding relief.

You guys are so nice. I appreciate everyone and everything here. I've been reading nonstop since I joined, and there's so much more to cover. I love it.

  2. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  3. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  4. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  6. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  8. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  9. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  10. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  11. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  12. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  13. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  14. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  15. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  16. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  17. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  18. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  19. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  20. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
