She finally just quit the meds and told him to **** off. She's using natural therapy now and dealing with the pain. It's better than being a zombie.

I think it's a federal law that the narcs can only be issued one month's worth at a time to curb abuse. Also, you have to physically pick up the 'scrip.
Your wife's a strong lady to make it that long without. My pain specialist gives me 'scrips' for 3 months worth whenever I go in. She just makes sure to date the 'scrip in advance.
