Re: Prescribed Vicodin for pain.............

yeh- the pain script thing can be slippery ground for us- i have a sponsee out on pills, and my old sponsor went out on [first] migraine meds. I do advil when i need it and have a script for naproxen for chronic cyatic condition. [might be one answer Sand Box] what i have realized over the last few years is that my cyatic condition is BEST treated by daily stretches and working on the ab strength. currently my rotator cuff has responded to extended time off [not easy for a builder] and now some site specific stretches. Work? Patience? whodathunkit!
i have close friends who have found p99 Basic Text indispensible in getting them thru surgeries. My litmus test? if i am unwilling to hand my meds to my sponsor and let him dispense 'em, then those meds best not be in my life.
