DRUG HELPS HER LIVE A NORMAL LIFE
Re: Oxycodone found to be more deadly than heroin, Feb. 10 I'm 47
years old and have been on OxyContin for about two years. Before my
doctor gave me this medication, I could not do everyday chores or
hold my grandchildren; I did not sleep and could not enjoy going for
walks. Now my doc has been suspended and I'm the one being punished.
I cannot find a doctor to help me just because a few pill poppers
abuse the system. I'm now back at square one, where it takes me a
half hour to get out of bed and I'm always crying because the pain is
so bad. I don't take these meds to get high; I take them to live.
