Hey Dave if you go down to the one where I posted I'm New Here....I posted more about my illnesses and the med's I"m on....I hope we can talk a lilttle more this morning I will be on all this morning...I have been reading a lot about the doc's here in the States...all I can say is I'm sacared to go and see any doc here in the US...I'm a canadian but I'm getting married to an American and I have been now living in FL for the past year, but I have been going back to Canada to see my doc's and I have been getting my med's fed-ex here which in the begining was hard but now that I got all the info down pat as what I need to have for it to make it through Customs and the FDA which is good. At 1st I thought that I would start to see some doc's here in the US but after reading about ppl not being able to get there pain med's and the rules about the pain med's down here I'm not too sure if I would even want to try....My family doctor in Canada is great about giving me pretty much any pain med's that I want and I dont have to worry about them being taken away from me if I take me then I should one month, but its still kind of hard to not be able to go to a doctor here if I have health problems, or if I got really sick which has happened to me many time before and I wold be so scared to go to a hospital here not only because of the huge bill that I would get but also beacause it really seems like a lot of the healthcare professionals here are very deeming to ppl that take narcotics for chronic pain. I'm just not sure what I'm going to do about that cause I normally go to the doc's at least once a month but since I have been in the States I have only gone to the doc's when I was back in Canada. I know I will prbably for sure will always get my med's from canada cause it so much cheaper, I truly wish all the ppl that I have read about here could have this great healthcare we have in Canada...I dont know about other Canadians but I'm surely greatful for my Doc's I have and that I have free healthcare pretty much excpet for a few things that they dont cover but all in all its pretty good. Also I want to ask ppl does anyone ever thought about smoking pot for the pain???
