Yeah, tell me about it.. I didn't know that you had.. or else I wouldn't have recommended it over APAP.

swim is in the same situation but with his shoulder, torn rotator cuff, pinched nerve and cartilage worn down, all this happend 3 years ago, swim went thru the docs and rehab only for it to get worse and happen again, was lucky the e.r doctor had mercy and perscribed hydocodone 5mg, weak but will help swim sleep at night insted of being in pain, but these docs are so hardheaded with givin out pain meds latly cuz of ppl abusing them. the real ppl who need them have to pretty much beg for relief these days, swim is better of self medication till he sees his ortho a month from now. just blows my mind. of course swim will eat down his 20 5mg pills in 4 days cuz 20mg only takes the edge off. healthcare in the usa has turned to complete crap these days, not everone is trying to get a quick fix. not fair at all,
