Ditto! At first I thought quads complaining about pain were BS'ing. Now that I have those same pains I have a lot of sympathy for them. I would never have believed I could hurt this much continuously.

I hate taking pills I feel like a freakin junkie but I function so much better when I take them. The ones that don’t get should be extremely glad they don’t.

Well....obviously this person has no real pain because let me tell you this much, if you are in serious pain that puts you in bed moaning and crying...you will try drugs. People that have little or no pain think that those that use drugs are weak addicts. This is flawed thinking. If you are in bed 5 days a week with pain, and with drugs you are able to function just lets say two more days it is worth it. None of us are going to live forever, so making the time we have more productive and happy is the name of the game. Life is about doing what you gotta do, moreso with spinal injury.
