I guess I can always buy hydrocodone from the drug dealer down the street, they never seem to run out of meds to relieve pain.

It seems as if the small, community pharmacy I have always used is getting squeezed out because the are not getting reimbursed enough for the big price increase. I was told that there is a shortage of roxicodone. Is this planned so that the pharmaceutical companies can price gauge??? Seems like the little pharmacies are going to pay the price for this manipulation of the supply and price. Disgusting!
CVS in Orlando has been out for weeks yet the guy in line ahead of me got his no problem. Something is very wrong here.
Every single month I have to drive to 4 different towns just to hear the same lie. My doctor writes it, insurance covers it, but the pharmacy just shrugs. They treat us like criminals for being in pain.
I never thought in 1 million years I would be taking these type of drugs. This pain that has encumbered me with no explanation is mind-boggling and not worth living through. I don't drink alcohol and I don't take drugs because I like to know what is going on around me and have control of my life. I cannot bare the pain that I suffer every day so I am one of the unfortunate ones that have to take these pills on a daily basis now to live somewhat of a normal life. This unexplainable pain has pretty much taking everything I treasured in my life as of activity, bicycles, camping, walking, motorcycles, hiking, family time, so on and so on but it will be my life next if I can't stop this pain, I know my body is going to shut down in someway to stop the pain in it's own way more than likely the one and only thing that I love the most life . I'm sorry for you people that seem to need the drugs, alcohol to get high on, the street drugs and whatever else you take that's your own fault for ODing and dropping dead, I don't need to take drugs to feel high on life. I don't feel that as a respected and very successful person that has great control over my own actions should have to pay for the bad actions of these others by being denied a medication that gives me my life back. When you, I speak of the regulator can come up with the reasoning and the cure or a better way to give me back my life outside of taking these pills so be it regulate the medication how you see fit meanwhile give me my life back and let me take the medicine I need to function. You're all a bunch of hypocritical jack asses in my eyes, going home drinking your alcohol or whatever else you were taking to suppress your mind so you can be comfortable but there are people doing that and abusing it killing themselves and I see none of you restricting it or taking it away and what's really irritating is the fact you're doing it for pleasure and recreational and I'm doing it for a medical necessity to
