I think they keep taking them even when the pain subsides. Or maybe the dose is too high. Dr.s aren't always the best at explaining the use of meds. People follow the directions and automatically get refills when they run out. Two important words tend to get overlooked. AS NECESSARY. My gran caused herself a big problem taking pills for edema in her legs. Kept taking them after the problem was gone for over a week. Luckily, my mom caught it, but her electrolytes were so out of whack, she ended up falling and in the hospital. She said dr told her to take them, but he never said when she should stop! Poor gramma.

thats terrible. but they are addictive . I never became addicted but I wanted them for the pain because it came right back. I didnt take them as ordered. about half as much I guess. I havent had any in a long time and there was no withdrawals so that means I wasnt addicted right ?
I also lose salt and potassium. Make you think your having a heart attack and it does mess with your heart. Drs. are a tool, pick the right one for the job put it back where it belongs when your done with it, wear safety glasses , well, you get the idea . LOL
 
Hi Camping & thank you. It's been a rough week. Praying for a thunderstorm that's rumbling outside my window. Just don't feel like working today. How are you doing? Any better after your outing?
