Feb 2018

When I had a root canal 5 years ago I got 3 of those and that was all! My 84 year old father did something to his back and they wouldn't give him anything. I had to go into the hopital for 4 days due to severe abdominal pain and they gave me nothing for months leading up to it and nothing in the hospital. I got 4 from a neighbor and the pain was so bad that it was as if I had taken vitamins. This is ridiculous...they go from one extreme to another! It makes me almost wish I had the guts to go to Bitcoin and order some fentanyl from China.
