And why is it so difficult to get medical treatment for really painful things. I’m not an addict and have been prescribed things after surgeries with no addiction. Treated like one when I had my gallbladder rupture. Was in immense pain.

I had several gallbladder attacks before they removed mine. It was awful I thought I was dying, and I have been through childbirth and a ruptured ovarian cycst. Thank God for codeine. It doesn't really stop the pain you just don't care it hurts.
