At least I dont feel so alone. It sure isnt anything I can admit to my family.
I don't have direct experience either,except in the sense that I am fairly familiar with heavy duty pain meds from having cared for my son's father.He died recently from lung cancer.

I do strongly feel that your first move should be to find a good physician to help you with this.It isn't something you should have to do alone.You may feel reluctant to face a doctor with this problem.But believe me,most docs would rather treat a patient who is honest and wants help, than to have to deal with one who is scheming for narcotics.

Keep posting here and let us know how you are doing.You may also want to check out the Narcotics Anonymous forum.There is a lot of good support to be found on this site.
