My wife recently had laser eye surgery, in the recovery room they went over the paper work with us and said just take Advil for the pain.
I kept asking are you sure?
The nurse kept saying yes, just take advil. I said but you said her blood pressure is so high from the pain, isn't high blood pressure bad? Just take advil.
My wife went back a couple of days later for a follow up, they said they made a mistake and should have given her something more for the pain - and gave her a prescription.
On the other hand, in the CBS video, one of the people that had their life ruined after getting hooked because of pain from a dirt motorcycle accident said the CEO should try taking a couple of his own pills (OxyContin) for two weeks and see for himself how easily it is to get hooked.
If you had your shoulder hurt back on October 27th, you would for sure be an addict by now on OxyContin. Then you would have two big problems instead of one. Three months?
