I searched for Vanguard and didn't see anything so I thought I would post it. It's kinda long but very interesting. Scary too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, instead of expecting everyone to read this long report, perhaps you could give us a quick synopsis yourself, so that we can decide whether or not we want to invest the time in it.

Heatmiser 0 #3 October 28, 2009 It's not a report, it's a tv show. It highlights the growing trend of doctors turned legal narcotic drug dealers. Basically people paying for doctor's visits to get prescriptions for large amounts of narcotics. What you say is reflective of your knowledge...HOW ya say it is reflective of your experience.

Worse is that people in severe pain (who didn't choose to get that way) are being told to live with it so their doctors don't have to deal with DEA scrutiny.

This is of particular interest to those of you who live in Florida. Or Kentucky or Tennesse or Ohio. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dreaming13000 1 #7 April 29, 2010 It is scary, someone very close to me is suffering from this legal poison!!! but marijuana is illegal (( hmmm, i guess cause the consumer can just grow what they want and there is no way to tax it)) but of course that is just my opinion on this subject. www.banoxycontin.com "A man only gets in life what he is believing for, nothing more and nothing less" Kenneth Hagen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DigitalDave 0 #8 April 29, 2010 QuoteIt is scary, someone very close to me is suffering from this legal poison!!! This is probably heading into SC-land .. but, are you saying they're suffering because they're taking Oxycontin? Why is it the government's responsibility to protect people from themselves ?

When only vicodin or something similar is prescribed, there is the risk of insufficient pain relief. The drug exists and is prescribed because there is a need for it. However, that need is very specific. Unfortunately, because of the hightened FDA scrutiny some doctors are reluctant to prescribe opiates, and others do not prescribe them at all, which leaves legitimate pain patients either in pain or feeling like criminals. Neither of those is a good option. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrewEckhardt 0 #10 April 30, 2010 QuoteIt is scary, someone very close to me is suffering from this legal poison!!! It's only legal when you have a prescription. www.banoxycontin.com Nope. I know people with chronic pain where the only cure is suicide and opiates a stopgap that their families prefer. All opiates should remain legal with a prescription, and the DA should back off on doctors prescribing them to pain patients that can't get relief other ways.
