She offered to prescribe me some valium instead of a muscle relaxer but I declined. Did she not see my family history of substance abuse?!?! I know myself well enough to admit that I have an addictive personality and valium is really the last thing I need!
She thinks my sacral joint is jammed or stuck or something.
So she prescribed me a muscle relaxant (with TWO available refills!), a pain killer (happens to be the one my mom is currently addicted to), a new birth control pill, a new anti-anxiety med and some samples of a migrane killer. Oh she did suggest I see a chiropractor and a physical therapist as soon as my pain subsides. In the meantime she just said to go home, lie down and take the drugs.
All that education just to throw drugs at people??? Ugh.
When in doubt, dope 'em up, I guess. I hate this.
PS Don't worry, I won't get addicted to this crap. I've had these kinds of Rx's before and I take as few as I can possibly get away with.|||111844687209187283|||Uh...thank you??
