I've heard that it's typical to replace one addiction with another. It seems I'm replacing drinking with eating. But, if you take your pain medicine as prescribed or as prescibed and as needed you should be okay. If your doctor knows you are in recovery he might be able to prescribe something else but sometimes you just have try 2 follow directions. Good Luck, and I know how you feel.
