That's funny, last time I looked Actipatch was "non addictive", why would we want to stop that? I never said all Doctors are crooks, I said the problem is bigger then you think. I also said a Doctor's number one priority should be alternatives as Doctors have "no idea" whether a person has an addictive personality or not. Ten years ago, before I knew about BIEL products I had two Herniated Discs and was referred to a Pain Management Dr. He prescribed pain Meds, and said he would probably have to increase dosage. I asked how long I would have to take them. He said 3 years, maybe life. I never filled the prescription and never saw him again. I rehabbed myself through exercise and the use of a inversion table for two months. I have had "no" back pain since that injury ten years ago, and take no pain Medication, ever. I have seen and posted about the dangers of addiction. The biggest myth in using drugs is that you can control it, Cemeteries are full of those who thought that. I wish I knew about BIEL products at the time of injury, my two month recovery may have been one month and less painful. Have a nice day, done with this discussion.
