I am worried by the fact that for the patient who needs pain relief that the overzealousness to control illegal use of prescriptions drugs will make it more difficult and Doctors more reluctant to prescribe medications. I am handicapped and current procedures are strict enough.I have to see my Doctor every month for a hand written prescription which is only good for ten days. I then have to take it tp the pharmacy within two days of the expiration of my previous medication. This must fall within the ten days the handwritten prescriptions are good for.If my Doctor goes on vacation or in my case maternity leave they can not postdate a prescription and another Doctor has to fill out the prescriptions which many are afraid to do. I could not function without my pain medication .I have had 3 laminectomies plus scoliosis in my neck and the last Doctor who evaluated my spine said if he were to do surgery he wouldn't know where to start. He said there isn't one part of my back from end to end that doesn't have some sort of medical problem in addition I have some kind of growth that they are currently trying to diagnose between c5-c6. In my life I have never gotten high from prescription drugs. I don't drink because of the drugs I take but when I did one or two beers would make me high like drugs never have. I may be dependent but I am definitely not addicted. Some of us need are medication and I just want to state that handicapped and disabled people already have extra requirements to get their medicines which in many cases are a hardship. These are the only prescriptions that can't be faxed in by a Doctor and those of us with limited mobility are already burdened with extra provisions and for us who need our medication we don't need or want anymore. As it is now life revolves around getting your prescriptions filled. If you are going on vacation you cannot get your prescriptions filled early and your plans must be changed so you can get your meds. Thank you for listening.
